Board reviews audit engagement with Michael Green, CPA; meeting transcript shows inconsistent fee figures
Summary
Trustees approved an audit engagement with Michael Green, CPA, for fiscal year ending 06/30/2025 but the meeting transcript records inconsistent fee amounts; staff indicated the firm can complete the work quickly.
The board reviewed and approved an audit engagement for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2025, to be performed by Michael Green, CPA.
Meeting materials and discussion included an estimated fee range referenced in the packet as "5,500 to 70,000 plus required filing fees" but a later line in the spoken motion recorded an "estimated fee of $5,507,000." Staff and trustees proceeded with the motion and approval, but the record contains that inconsistency in fee figures; meeting minutes should be clarified to confirm the correct estimate and associated filing fees.
Staff said the selected auditor has experience with similar towns and can execute quickly; the board thanked the staff member who located the firm. The motion to approve the audit engagement passed on a roll-call vote.
