Welcome to the Transparency and Accountability for Governments (TAG) in Tennessee website.

This site provides a gateway for users to obtain selected revenue and expenditure data for county governments in Tennessee. The information available on this site has been taken from the “Miscellaneous Schedules - Detailed Schedules of Revenues and Expenditures – All Governmental Fund Types” found in the county annual financial reports prepared by the Office of the Comptroller of the Treasury, Division of Local Government Audit. TAG only presents the revenues and expenditures of the governmental funds of a county’s primary government and the discretely presented School Department component unit. The data does not include: 1) a county’s other fund types such as enterprise funds and agency funds, 2) various other component units, 3) and amounts classified as other financing sources and uses.

The Division of Local Government Audit is responsible for the annual financial and compliance audits of all 95 counties in Tennessee. The division presently performs the audits in 89 counties. While certified public accountants (CPA) perform the audits in six counties. The counties audited by CPA firms are Davidson, Hamilton, Knox, McMinn, Shelby, and Washington. The TAG website does not include revenue and expenditure data for those counties at this time. The annual financial reports for all 95 counties can be viewed from the Local Government Audit reports page with the link provided below.

Because the TAG website only provides access to county governmental fund type revenues and expenditures, it is important users view the completed annual financial reports we have made available on the web to obtain a better understanding of the data presented. Here is a link to the Local Government Audit reports page:
