The board approved a professional services agreement with Zipka/Zepka and Associates to prepare annual financial statements and Form 990 filings for fiscal years ending Dec. 31, 2025 through Dec. 31, 2027; audit services are separate and historically funded by the city's general fund.

The Community Improvement Corporation of Euclid voted Oct. 14 to approve a professional services agreement with Zipka and Associates for preparation of financial statements and tax filings for fiscal years ending Dec. 31, 2025 through Dec. 31, 2027.

Director Smith presented the cost proposal included in the board packet and said staff will budget for the services in those fiscal years. Director Smith also said the organization has sufficient revenues to cover the costs. Board discussion clarified that the agreement covers preparation of the financial statements and Form 990 filings; audit services are a separate engagement.
