Committee urges use of internal auditor to address repeat findings and flags access problems with garage vendor system
Summary
Members proposed using Jackson City's internal auditor to review departments with repeated audit findings and to start department-by-department reviews; the committee also logged continued problems obtaining access to a garage vendor's usage system and asked staff to resolve access by March.
The Jackson City Audit Committee discussed operational follow-ups including tapping the internal auditor to address repeat findings and resolving access problems to a garage vendor's usage system.
Unidentified Speaker 1 proposed using the city's internal auditor to review departments with repeated findings, suggesting a phased approach (one department per month) so the small internal-auditor office can meet requirements without large budget changes. The proposal aims to identify practical fixes that would reduce repeat audit citations.
Separately, Unidentified Speaker 5 reported that attempts to obtain access to the garage vendor's field-usage system have not succeeded. The speaker said they had visited the site twice and that the vendor had not followed up to provide a dedicated login; using another employee’s credentials would violate policy. Staff committed to continue outreach to the vendor and to provide the committee with an initial month of usage data by March.
Committee members encouraged members whose terms were expiring to apply for reappointment and thanked staff for the work; no new budget or formal appointments were approved in the provided transcript.
