Board accepts audit engagement letter and opioid settlement reports; approves payables and applies Tri-County excess revenue to fund balances
Summary
The Board accepted the Rehmann Robson audit engagement letter for year ending Dec. 31, 2025, accepted opioid settlement quarterly reports from multiple recipients, approved accounts payable totaling $2,357,147.72, and applied Clinton County's $2,916.26 Tri-County Metro excess revenue toward future fund balance reductions.
At its Feb. 24 meeting, the Board acknowledged and accepted the Rehmann Robson Audit Engagement Letter and terms for the year ending Dec. 31, 2025 and reviewed that Clinton County remains subject to a federal single audit.
The Board also accepted second-quarter reports from opioid settlement fund recipients, including Bath Township Library, Clinton County Journey Court, Community Mental Health Authority of Clinton, Eaton & Ingham Counties, Recovery Worx and the Clinton County Veterans Treatment Court and placed those reports on file. In addition, the Board approved accounts payable invoices paid from Jan. 3 through Feb. 6, 2026 totaling $2,357,147.72.
Regarding Tri-County Metro Narcotics Squad finances, Tri-County reported positive offset revenues and Clinton County's share of excess funds is $2,916.26; administration recommended applying that amount to future reductions to the county's fund balances and the Board approved that recommendation.
Why it matters: These items are regular financial oversight actions—accepting an auditor engagement letter establishes the audit scope, accepting opioid grant reports fulfills oversight obligations, accounts payable approval authorizes settled payments, and the Tri-County disposition decision reserves a modest amount to offset future obligations.
