(The Center Square) – Dashboard Dave has another one.
First-term Republican North Carolina Auditor Dave Boliek on Tuesday introduced the Internal OSA Budget Dashboard. It comes about five months after the Helene Recovery Dashboard debuted on the website of the Office of State Auditor.
Boliek said taxpayers will get transparency of his office fiscally through a breakdown of the revenue sources, expenses, and spending by vendor for state fiscal year 2025. Items displayed include how much the office received from audit fees, the amount of state funds carried forward to the following year, and expenses including payroll and software services.
“By opening access to our office’s spending, we’re leading the charge to create a more transparent government in North Carolina,” Boliek said. “This resource is easily accessible online and should be a new standard of government transparency. The Office of the State Auditor has a mission to hold government accountable, and that includes shining a light on our own office.”
Boliek, in his introduction of the Helene dashboard in February, said transparency is vital in the recovery from Hurricane Helene.
A third dashboard at Auditor.NC.gov is the state’s financial snapshot.
