Summary

At its Oct. 8 meeting the Platteville Common Council approved the consent agenda (appointments, licenses, permits) and approved engaging Johnson Block for audit services for the year ending Dec. 31, 2024.

The Platteville Common Council took three routine votes on Oct. 8:

Consent agenda - Action: Approved the consent agenda, covering council minutes (Sept. 24), payment of bills, September financial reports, board and commission appointments, operator licenses, and street-closure permits for upcoming community events including Main Street Sweet Treats (Oct. 26) and the Platteville Community Arboretum Monster Dash 5K. - Motion: Moved by Ken Killian, seconded by Bob (Stoffacher referenced earlier in packet); roll-call vote carried.

Audit services (year ending Dec. 31, 2024) - Action: Council approved engaging Johnson Block and Company to perform the city’s 2024 financial audit and single audit (Title 2 Uniform Guidance / state single-audit guidelines). Staff cited continuity reasons (new accounting manager) and compliance needs. - Motion: Moved by Lynn Parrott; seconded by Kathy Kepp. Staff noted an estimated total cost of about $65,000 to include water and sewer utility and TIF districts; the expense is reflected in 2025 budget planning. Vote: roll call in favor; motion carries.

How this fits the agenda These votes were procedural and carried on voice/roll-call without requests for separate discussion; staff will incorporate the audit engagement into the 2025 budget and proceed with audit contract steps.
