Board approves first reading of policy 3007 on audits to fix auditor-selection inconsistency
Summary
The board approved Policy 3007 (audits) for first reading to resolve an inconsistency with an existing policy that addresses continuity of contracted services, specifically auditors. The revision aligns audit selection language with policy 3003.
The board approved Policy 3007 (audits) for first reading at the June 24 meeting to correct an internal inconsistency about auditor selection and continuity of contracted services.
Board counsel and staff explained that Policy 3.003 references continuity of purchasing services and specifically calls out auditors, whereas Policy 3.007 implied an annual board selection of an auditor. The proposed changes harmonize the two policies so that auditor services are handled consistently with the district’s purchasing and continuity expectations. The revised policy was presented in a redline version in the board packet; the first reading passed without recorded opposition.
Board members had an opportunity to ask clarifying questions about the change and confirmed the revision would be brought forward for a subsequent action (second reading) consistent with the board’s policy adoption timeline.
