Financial transparency is central to how Austin manages public resources.

Checkbook
Access the City's checkbook data to learn more about its finances. Two tools are available to help you explore this information: the Austin Financial Online (AFO) Checkbook and the City's Open Data flat file. The data on these websites is provided for informational purposes and reflects City of Austin expenditures; however, certain Austin Energy transactions are excluded as competitive matters under Texas Government Code Section 552.133 and Austin City Council Resolution 20051201-002. As a result, some line amounts may not represent the full check amount when Austin Energy invoices are included.
Explore data in AFO
Easily explore City spending data that matters most to you. The AFO Checkbook works best when you start with a clear goal, helping you narrow your search using required filters.
