Loading...
Summary
A newly sworn official took an oath and the council reviewed a backlog of state-required reports (2023–2024 financial and grant-related reports); staff said they would seek a state auditor to complete reconciliations and file required reports to restore compliance and support grant points.
At the meeting a new official was sworn in and then joined discussion of outstanding state reports and audits. During the oath the sworn individual recited support for the U.S. and state constitutions and pledged to discharge duties faithfully.
Clerk (S9) said several reports remain due for 2023 and 2024, including a certified financial report, fraud-risk assessment and impact-fee report that contribute to grant points and compliance. Committee member (S7) reported staff are reconciling 2023 through 2025 and that a state auditor may be needed to audit the books for the past two to three years so the town can access county funds.
Nut graf: The council acknowledged a backlog of state reporting and directed staff to work with the state auditor and other support to reconcile records and submit required reports used both for compliance and grant eligibility.
Clerk (S9) described the state auditors’ online compliance dashboard and offered to forward links and login information to staff; members agreed to coordinate with Lucy and Flores (staff) and to follow up on who will file which reports.
Ending: Staff will arrange for auditing assistance, forward required report links and credentials to relevant staff, and return with an updated status on the reconciliations and filings.
