Ben Hill County manager supports auditor Tony Eckler continuing after Meeks CPA split
Summary
County Manager Michael Dinnerman told commissioners that auditor Tony Eckler will take the auditing side after leaving Meeks CPA, with Meeks continuing tax work; Dinnerman said he is comfortable with Eckler due to familiarity with county finances.
County Manager Michael Dinnerman informed commissioners on Dec. 3 that auditor Tony Eckler is separating from Meeks CPA to start his own auditing firm and that Meeks CPA has agreed Eckler will take the auditing side while Meeks continues preparing taxes.
Dinnerman told the board that Pat Ashley called to confirm the agreement and said he is comfortable continuing with Eckler as the county's auditor because Eckler is familiar with Ben Hill County finances from his prior work with Meeks CPA and the transition should be smoother.
The workshop adjourned after the brief discussion; no formal contract award or vote was recorded in the minutes.
