NEW ORLEANS - Mayor Helena Moreno today announced that the City of New Orleans submitted its Fiscal Year 2025 Annual Comprehensive Financial Report to the Louisiana Legislative Auditor by the statutory deadline June 30th, 2026, marking another important milestone in the City’s efforts to restore fiscal discipline and accountability.
The city has had an inconsistent track record of submitting its annual audits on time. In fact, before this year’s filing, only one annual audit had been submitted by the statutory deadline since 2019. The timely submission of the Fiscal Year 2025 audit marks another significant step toward making accountability and sound financial management the standard, not the exception.
