Summary

City auditors presented an unmodified audit opinion for fiscal year 2025 and the city assessor reported a modest rise in taxable assessments at the Bridgman City Council meeting on Feb. 9, 2026.
Matt Holland, representing Gabridge and Company PLC, presented the FY2025 audit findings and said the city received an unmodified opinion, the highest level of assurance, adding that the city "was in good standing." The minutes record no qualifications or management letters in the summary presented at the meeting.
Assessor Baumann reported that assessment notices would be mailed that week and that the increase in assessments for the year is 2.7 percent. The minutes do not specify how the increase will affect individual taxable values or revenues; the assessor's statement provides the percentage change only.
Both items were listed under department reports and were received by the council as presented.
