Peachtree City reports clean annual audit; finance leadership changed midyear
Summary
At a council work session report, city staff said the annual comprehensive financial report earned a clean opinion from auditors Malden and Jenkins; staff also announced the retirement of CFO Paul Salvatore and the midyear elevation of Kelly Bush to chief financial officer.
Staff member, City staff, reported at a Peachtree City council work session last Thursday that the city’s annual comprehensive financial report, presented by audit firm Malden and Jenkins, received a clean opinion with no audit findings.
The staff member said the clean opinion represents the highest level of compliance for the city’s audit work and credited proactive communication between city staff and Malden and Jenkins. “This is an important audit function that we go through every year,” the staff member said.
The transcript also notes that former Chief Financial Officer Paul Salvatore retired last year and that Kelly Bush was elevated to the CFO role midyear. The staff member said Kelly Bush and city management — identified in the transcript as Justin Strickland and Dustin Fallon — contributed to the finance department’s compliance and praised the team’s proactive approach.
These remarks were delivered as an informational report; the transcript does not record any council vote or formal motion tied to the audit report or the personnel change.
