Council authorizes finance director to solicit bids for city audit
Summary
Following an executive-session discussion, the council moved and approved a motion directing the finance director to go out to bid for an external audit firm.
After returning from executive session, the Stafford City Council on March 19 considered action related to audit services. Council members moved to authorize Finance Director Alka Shah to solicit bids for the city’s external audit. The motion was put and the council recorded a voice vote in favor; the council did not record individual roll-call tallies during the meeting.
City staff said the action initiates a standard procurement step to identify and select an external auditing firm for the city’s financial statement audit. The item followed executive-session discussion of pending matters. No additional budget amendment was made on March 19; council directed the finance director to pursue the procurement process and present responsive proposals in a future meeting for final selection.
