An unidentified speaker at a Union County meeting said county auditors will make an initial on-site visit for interviews in January and return in February to carry out the full audit.

"We just finished budget and then levies, and then now we have the audit starting," the unidentified speaker said, noting they had "my first call with the auditors." The speaker described the schedule: "they're gonna come down, a week in January or a couple days in January and just do, like, preliminary, like, basically talking to big people, doing their interviews," and added that auditors "will come back to do their audit, in February, February." The speaker also said auditors will be on-site for a few days and that staff are continuing to upload documents for review: "Well, we are still uploading everything, but they still come on-site for a few days."

The remarks appeared during the meeting’s open-floor portion after the speaker asked if anyone had additional business. The transcript does not specify the exact meeting date or which Union County body was convened; the speaker referred generically to "our county audit." No motions, votes, or formal actions related to the audit were recorded in the provided transcript excerpt.

Next steps described in the meeting are the auditors’ preliminary interviews in January followed by the primary audit work in February, with staff preparing and uploading records ahead of those on-site visits.
