Tyrone council agrees to put auditing contract out to bid and schedule agenda item for next meeting
Summary
After discussion about the length of the town's relationship with its current auditors, the council voted to place an item on the next meeting agenda to take the auditing contract out to bid and to review timing and potential transition issues.
Council discussed whether to solicit bids for the town’s auditing services and how long the current firm has provided those services. A staff update noted the firm has been the town’s auditor for many years; councilmembers debated whether putting the contract out to bid would raise price risk but would bring a fresh set of eyes.
One council member moved that the matter be taken out to bid and that it be made a formal agenda item for the next meeting so members can review contract expiration dates, potential transition timing and software or learning‑curve issues. The amended motion to add the auditors bid as an agenda item passed; one member expressed uncertainty about the timing and requested more detail at the next meeting.
No competitive results were solicited at this meeting; staff will return with contract expiration dates and a proposed timeline for issuing a request for proposals.
