County auditor presents 2024 annual report; commissioners authorize certification ahead of Munis transition
Summary
Okanogan County Auditor Carrie Hall reviewed the 2024 annual report and required financial notes, reported on federal and state award schedules, and the board authorized signing the certification; staff described an upcoming transition to Munis in 2026.
Carrie Hall, Okanogan County Auditor, walked the Board of Commissioners through the county’s 2024 annual report and the many required disclosures and schedules that underpin the state auditor’s review. Hall outlined notes on financial statements, environmental-closure liabilities, leases, subscription-based IT (SaaS) reporting, OPEB and pension disclosures, and the schedule of federal awards that drives the single-audit process.
Hall described the manual work required to assemble the C4/C5 reports from the county accounting system and said the county’s schedule of federal awards for the year totaled approximately $4,854,000 in expenditures while state award schedules totaled roughly $4,509,000. She also noted the county is in a parallel-testing phase ahead of a planned Munis go-live and that Eden (the legacy system) will be sun‑setted at the end of 2025; staff anticipate moving to Munis January 2026.
After answering commissioners’ questions about leases, grant reporting, and compensated-absence liabilities, Hall asked the board for assent to sign and submit the annual report to the state auditor. Commissioners indicated no objection and authorized her to complete the certification and electronic submission.
