My Fellow Alabamians:

Welcome to the website of the State Auditor. As you browse our website, please let us know if you have any questions that cannot be answered through our various links. In an effort to improve openness and communication from this office, I welcome your suggestions or comments.

It is a privilege to serve the great State of Alabama as your State Auditor. I believe in honest, open government by the people, and for the people. I have a staff of dedicated individuals who work hard each day to improve the efficiency with which we operate while doing so in the most cost effective manner.

Our goal is to provide accountability to the taxpayers of Alabama by maintaining accurate records of all personal property valued at $500 and above as well as items deemed sensitive in nature. As well, the State Auditor's Office is the only check and balance between the Comptroller's Office and the State Treasury. I take these great responsibilities seriously, and I intend to uphold the duties of the Office of State Auditor as outlined in the Code of Alabama.

As part of my pledge to the citizens of Alabama to perform the duties of this office with honesty, openness, and integrity, I maintain an Open Door Policy in the State Auditor’s Office. If any Alabama taxpayer has questions or concerns about the process of accounting for state personal property, contact my office at 334-242-7010 or send me an e-mail.

Again, it is an honor to serve you. If I may be of assistance, please let me know.

Sincerely,

 

Samantha Shaw
State Auditor
