About Courtney
Greetings! My name is Courtney Ruby.
A CPA and Certified Fraud Examiner, I’m serving my third term as Oakland City Auditor. I turned a troubled agency into a recognized national model of accountability, transparency, and effectiveness.
Our Police Commission performance audit report was recognized by the national Association of Local Government Auditors (ALGA) with a distinguished award as one of the best performance audits of the year among our peers. We previously earned a distinguished ALGA award in 2013. In 2014, I was named one of the Most Influential Professionals in Government Auditing.
Our team is respectful, high-performing and dedicated to public service. Since January, 2019, we’ve released 25 reports, including in-depth performance audits of the City’s financial condition, homeless encampment services, fire inspections, and the Oakland Police Commission and Community Police Review Agency. We rebooted the Whistleblower Hotline Program, tripling reports of waste, fraud and abuse.
I would be honored by your vote. Thank you!
