County auditor reports one repeat finding on fixed-assets; county to advertise for new auditor
Summary
An auditor presentation cited one repeat finding related to incomplete fixed-asset inventory; commissioners were told federal and state single-audit work had no reportable findings and staff said the county will advertise for a new audit firm and pursue a complaint against the prior auditor.
An auditor presenting the annual financial review told the Dixie County Board that government-auditing standards work identified one repeated finding relating to fixed-asset inventory control and that the federal and state single-audit reports contained no findings.
The auditor said a full physical inventory of assets was not complete and recommended a more detailed count and analysis to resolve the repeated finding. The board and staff discussed responsibility for completing the inventory and agreed to assist the clerk’s and finance offices to clear the finding.
County staff also reported that a complaint against the prior audit firm had been filed with the Better Business Bureau and that the county will advertise for a new audit firm. Commissioners expressed their interest in avoiding repeat findings with the incoming auditor.
What was not changed: the auditor reported the finding is a repeat from the prior year and noted it remains open; no formal disciplinary or statutory action was announced at the meeting.
