The South Dakota Department of Legislative Audit (DLA) created and offers the various forms used by Township Treasurers. It is best if the treasurers can download these worksheets in Excel (spreadsheet) format so they can be modified to suit the needs of the township.
FORMS: (provided by the Department of Legislative Audit)
- Township Annual Report with Instructions
- Excel Version of the Annual Report
- Narrative on Excel Records for Township
- Example 1 – Receipt Journal
- Example 2 – Disbursement Journal
- Example 3 – Fund Cash Balance Record
- Example 4 – Revenue and Expenditure Budget Record
- Example 5 – Cash Reconciliation Worksheet
- Example 6 – Accounts Receivable Record
- Example 7 – Individual Payroll and Leave Record
- Example 8 – Township Voucher
In 2024 I will be sending a letter in January to the various township clerks and treasurers which direct them to this website to obtain the forms. We will no longer be sending the forms out. The number one reason for not sending the paper forms is that there may be a change in reporting requirements and the use of an old, held over form, may cause issues later.
The DLA forms are found on their “RESOURSES” pages located at: RESOURCES | Legislative Audit (sd.gov)
