The Ironton Metropolitan Housing Authority (IMHA) has been recognized for its outstanding financial stewardship by receiving the prestigious Ohio Auditor of State Award for the fiscal year ending 2025. The award was presented to Executive Director, Katherine Jones and Director of Finance, Sarah Long, by Mr. Cameron Lowery, on behalf of Ohio Auditor of State Keith Faber.

The Ohio Auditor of State Award is presented to government entities that demonstrate excellence in financial reporting by preparing accurate financial statements in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP), maintaining strong internal controls, and complying with all applicable state laws and regulations.

The award reflects IMHA's commitment to transparency, accountability, and responsible management of public funds while serving the residents of Lawerence County.

Mr. Lowery commended the agency for its commitment to sound financial practices and noted that achieving the Auditor of State Award is an accomplishment earned by only a select number of public entities each year. The award signifies that the agency's financial reporting meets the highest standards of accuracy, compliance, and accountability.
