Council awards one-time $15,000 FY2024 audit engagement to Gilbert & Stewart
Summary
South Weber City Council approved a one-off $15,000 engagement with Gilbert & Stewart to assist with fiscal year 2024 audit work; the contract is intended to provide internal audit assistance and allow staff training ahead of future audits.
The South Weber City Council on Sept. 24 approved awarding a one-time contract to Gilbert & Stewart for audit assistance related to the fiscal year 2024 audit in the amount of $15,000.
Council discussion noted the admin/finance committee vetted multiple quotes; the chosen firm previously served as the city’s auditor and was recommended by staff to support internal audit setup while a third party performs the actual audit work. One council member summarized the rationale: the engagement gives current staff a chance to learn and prepare for future audits.
The motion to award the engagement passed with council support. The item was described as a single-year engagement tied to FY2024 audit needs; the council did not authorize a recurring contract beyond the one-time service discussed at the meeting.
Next steps: staff will finalize the engagement documents with Gilbert & Stewart and proceed with the audit assistance work for FY2024.
