[0:00] Have you ever wondered [0:01] how the City of Minneapolis [0:02] keeps itself accountable? [0:03] That's where the City Auditor comes in. [0:05] The office of City Auditor [0:07] is an independent body [0:08] that strengthens the public [0:10] trust by delivering [0:11] objective, risk-informed oversight. [0:13] We don't work for the City Council, [0:16] the Mayor, or the departments we [0:17] audit—in fact, [0:19] our job is to hold them accountable [0:21] to you—because we work for you, [0:23] the people who live, work, [0:25] and play in Minneapolis. [0:27] The City Auditor [0:28] safeguards public [0:29] resources by identifying risks, [0:32] promoting accountability, [0:34] ensuring compliance, [0:35] and supporting a transparent [0:37] City government. [0:38] To ensure our findings are thorough, [0:40] ethical, credible and reliable, [0:43] we ground ourselves in the highest [0:45] auditing standards, [0:46] free from all political pressures. [0:49] We're here to make sure [0:50] the government works for you. [0:52] That's our promise.
