VML/VACo Finance places seasoned accountants in a variety of local assignments. We assist localities with pre-audit support, supplementing local finance staffs, and filling vacant positions on an interim basis. VML/VACo recently led the accounting team on a major municipal turnaround effort that enabled a locality to catch-up on its seriously past-due financial statements and obtain a clean audit opinion.
