Government Finance Officers Association Award

We are honored to announce that the Town of Tolland once again received an award from the G.F.O.A. for our financial reporting. This is completely due to the efforts of Town of Tolland Director of Finance, Lisa Hancock and her dedicated staff. Lisa Hancock is consistently recognized for her reporting and budget preparation year after year from many entities. We are literally running out of wall space to hang the awards. Congratulations to Director Hancock and thank you to her and her staff.
