Summary

Auditors delivered an unmodified opinion on White County's FY2025 financial statements, reporting no material weaknesses or significant deficiencies; the audit committee voted to forward the audit report to full court.

The audit committee met and reported the results of the FY2025 independent audit: the county received an unmodified (clean) opinion with no audit findings, no material weaknesses, and no significant deficiencies. Auditors reviewed internal control over federally funded programs — including ARPA and special education clusters — and reported no material weaknesses and an unmodified opinion for compliance on major federal programs.

Auditor Marco told the committee the county qualified as a low‑risk auditee on the federal awards tested. Committee members congratulated Director Markham and the finance office for their cooperation during the audit process.

The audit committee moved and approved a draft letter summarizing the committee’s review and will forward the audit committee report to full court for acceptance and filing with the comptroller’s office. The committee also reviewed the county’s fraud reporting process and confirmed a publicly posted hotline and steps for reporting suspected waste or fraud as required by state statute (TCA 9‑3‑406).

The audit results will be posted with the state comptroller; committee members encouraged county departments to review the report and maintain internal controls that produced the favorable outcome.
