Treasurer Tina Massey reported at the July 10 Mackinac County Board of Commissioners meeting that the county's audit was completed and submitted by the filing deadline, but she said she and Clerk Hillary Vowell were dissatisfied with how the auditors conducted the process.

Massey told the board she and the clerk "felt everything was last minute for the auditors" and said they would look into other audit firms and review the current audit contract to determine whether the county could end it one year early. The minutes record no formal motion to terminate the contract; Massey indicated only that staff would investigate options.

Prosecutor Stuart Spencer submitted a letter regarding the status of his request for MERS retirement; that letter is noted in the minutes but no action on the request is recorded.
