Historical NoteReturn to Top
The position of City Treasurer was created in Seattle's first City Charter in 1869. The Treasurer administered the collection, management, and disbursement of all City monies, invested temporary surplus cash, and administered Local Improvement District assessments. The Treasurer, like the Comptroller, was an elected official until 1992, when a City Charter amendment abolished the two positions and consolidated the two departments into an executive agency, the Department of Finance.
Content DescriptionReturn to Top
The Treasurer annual reports date from 1906 to 1985 and detail cash transactions for the City. Statements of cash balances, receipts, and disbursements are included in the reports. Most reports provide information regarding Local Improvement Funds, tax sales, and balances of various funds; reports may also include information on revenue sources and amounts of money held at different banks. The 1921 report discusses the financial condition of the City. In the 1980s, the reports are published and include text explaining highlights of the year's activities. Photographs, charts, and graphs accompany the narrative. The 1981 report provides some historical background information on the Treasurer's office.
