Audit follow‑up: County grant management recommendations remain open, AMOPS 701 in process
Summary
The Comptroller's office presented a six‑month status update on a December audit of county grant management. Progress was reported on development of written policies and AMOPS 701, but all 14 recommendations remain open; the next status update is planned for the January 2026 meeting cycle.
Office of the Comptroller audit staff updated the committee on July 7 about progress implementing recommendations from a December audit of county grant management procedures.
Jennifer Follier, the Comptroller’s director of audits, told the committee the December report found that the county lacked clearly defined roles and responsibilities for post‑award grant financial management, did not consistently track grant expenditures by code in the county financial system, and did not maintain centrally located written procedures. The December audit contained 14 recommendations.
Follier said the Comptroller’s office and county staff have made progress on several items and highlighted AMOPS 701, the comptroller’s federal grants management policy released last fall, as moving through the final committee review. She said none of the 14 recommendations are yet fully closed and the audit office plans to report back during the January 2026 audit committee cycle. The item was informational only and no committee action was required.
