The CRA accepted the independent audit for the prior fiscal year. The auditor reported a clean audit with no findings; staff described it as “highest marks.” The board approved acceptance unanimously.

Why it matters: Clean audits increase transparency and allow the CRA to proceed with capital planning and grant administration with standard financial controls in place. CRA staff thanked the auditors and noted there were no outstanding findings or recommendations.

Ending: The board accepted the audit and moved on to subsequent agenda items.
