Auditors deliver clean FY2025 opinion for Coconino County; IT internal-control issue noted
Summary
The Arizona Auditor General and contract auditors CliftonLarsonAllen presented Coconino County's FY2025 audit May 12, reporting clean/unmodified opinions on financial statements and the single audit; auditors flagged one significant IT-related deficiency that county staff said is already being remediated.
Contract auditors from CliftonLarsonAllen and the Arizona Auditor General presented Coconino County’s fiscal year 2025 audit at the board meeting May 12 and issued clean (unmodified) opinions on the county’s basic financial statements and the single‑audit of federal awards.
Jean Marie Dietrich, the CLA lead principal for the engagement, summarized the audit scope and results, saying auditors found no financial‑statement findings and no material weaknesses. She identified two unposted, immaterial adjustments that management elected not to post in order to deliver timely financial statements, and noted work on an annual expenditure‑limitation report that remains in final review with the Auditor General’s Office.
The auditors did report one significant deficiency relating to information systems/internal control. County finance and IT staff told the board they have already begun remediation work; Finance Director and IT Director were credited in the presentation for rapid responses. Audit presenters said the county’s single audit tested roughly 40–46% of federal expenditures in sampled programs and found no matters of noncompliance requiring reporting.
"Overall, we've issued a clean, unmodified opinion ... and identified no matters of noncompliance with laws or regulations," Jean Marie Dietrich told the board.
Supervisors thanked finance staff for timely reporting and asked for no formal action; the auditors presented the report as information to the board.
