Meaningful transparency leads to greater accountability. Texans work hard to earn every tax dollar they send to the state and local governments. This is why The Texas State Comptroller publishes information about how and where those dollars are spent.

The City of Abernathy is committed to transparency in our operations by providing easy online access to important financial data and visual tools and analysis. This effort achieves the goals set by the Comptroller’s office Transparency Stars program.
