Spring Hill council adopts internal control standards after audit findings
Summary
Facing audit requirements, the town council approved a set of internal control standards and a mandatory annual certification/training for officials to improve recordkeeping and accountability.
Following audit findings, Spring Hill's council approved internal control standards intended to improve documentation, segregation of duties and annual certification of training. Lana presented a packet based on state guidelines and recommended posting the materials to the town website.
The council moved to approve the internal control standards; after a voice vote the chair announced the standards were approved and that the town would require that involved officials complete a short mandatory training and sign a certification each year. The motion was brought forward during the meeting and Nancy was named as moving the motion; the council approved by voice vote.
Council members discussed logistical details such as who must take the training, oath-of-office procedures and how to document completion. The clerk treasurer said she would post the standards and follow up with the training schedule.
