Putnam County audit returns zero findings, Mayor Porter says
Summary
Mayor Porter told the Putnam County Commission that the county audit — a 227-page report — had zero findings; the county has had four clean audits in the last eight years and eight clean years out of the last ten.
Mayor Porter announced during the Putnam County Commission meeting that the county'wide audit for the past fiscal year produced a 227-page report with "0 findings." He described the result as "a very successful year" and praised elected officials, department heads and finance staff for their work.
Porter said the county has had four audits with no findings in the last eight years and that, "out of the last 10 years, when it comes to county general ... 8 of those, we didn't have any findings." He singled out finance staff by name and invited residents to view the report online or request a printed copy through the county office.
The mayor framed the audit as evidence of strong financial management across county offices, including roads and schools, and thanked audit staff for their collaboration. He advised residents the report is available on the county website and offered to provide printed copies on request.
No formal action was taken during the announcement; the item was an informational report from the mayor's office.
