County accepts independent audit; auditors flag Long Term Health Fund deficiency
Summary
Larson & Company presented Duchesne County's Dec. 31, 2024, independent audit; auditors reported one compliance finding: the Long Term Health Fund requires budgeting with at least a 5% increase. The commission accepted the report unanimously.
Duchesne County commissioners accepted the county's Financial Statements and Independent Auditor's Report for the year ending Dec. 31, 2024, during the July 21 meeting.
Jon Haderlie, a partner with Larson & Company, described the report's layout, opinions and findings and identified a single compliance finding during the current period: the Long Term Health Fund shows a deficiency and must be budgeted with at least a five percent increase. A copy of the report will be kept in the Clerk‑Auditor's office. Commissioner Tracy Killian moved to accept the report; Commissioners Jeff Chugg and Greg Miles seconded and voted aye, and the motion passed.
The audit acceptance places the finding on the county's record and signals that county budget staff must address the Long Term Health Fund deficiency in forthcoming budget work and reporting.
The commission did not take additional action on the item beyond acceptance; staff follow‑up on budgeting adjustments was indicated.
