Margaret Reif, Chester County Controller
Margaret holds a degree in Economics and Finance from the University of Scranton. She was controller for a Malvern-based non-profit, managed a family-owned small business for over 25 years, and worked as investment liaison at Vanguard. She has been a community activist for issues such as maintaining open space and child advocacy. She has provided transparency, accountability and efficiency to the residents of Chester County by bringing a fresh eye to precious taxpayer resource allocation. As Controller, she has found ways to improve and streamline processes within the County leading to significant cost savings for the taxpayers.
What does the Controller do?
An elected row officer, the controller is the chief financial officer and chief auditor. The controller exercises general supervision and control over the county's financial affairs. The controller is authorized to examine the accounts and official acts of all officers or other persons who collect, receive, or disperse the county's money. The controller sits on the retirement board, salary board, and prison oversight board. The controller is the final, independent check on the fiscal activities of the executive and legislative branches of county government as well as the independently elected officers and courts.
Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world; indeed, it's the only thing that ever has.
—Margaret Mead
