Humboldt approves audit agreement after ARPA grant increases scope and cost
Summary
The town approved an audit agreement with Schonefish & Co.; Finance-related staff said the cost roughly doubled because Humboldt received an ARPA grant of over $2 million. The contract was approved by roll call at the July 13 meeting.
The Humboldt Town Board approved an audit agreement with Schonefish & Co. at its July 13 meeting. Kristie Ellis told the board the audit cost increased relative to the town’s prior audit because Humboldt received an American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) grant exceeding $2 million, which requires additional audit work and reporting.
President Ritchy Griepp moved to approve the audit agreement; Julien Gambs seconded the motion and the board approved it by roll call. No dollar amount for the audit was recorded in the minutes, but Ellis explicitly linked the increased cost to the town’s ARPA funding.
