Summary

Hopkins and Associates told the Marshall County Board that the FY2025 audit went smoothly, county records are well managed, IMRF contributions are correct, and a single audit was not required because federal spending was below $1,000,000.

Joel Hopkins, principal of Hopkins and Associates, told the Marshall County Board on March 12 that the FY2025 audit "went very smoothly" and that county records are "in very good shape." He thanked department heads and singled out Cindy Nighsonger, Jill Kenyon and Gina Noe for their assistance in preparing records for review.

Hopkins reviewed a five-year comparative balance sheet (the government-wide statement of net position) and said the county has "done a great job in controlling the funds." He also noted that the county did not exceed $1,000,000 in federal expenditures during the fiscal year, so a federal single audit was not required. The auditor said IMRF contributions appear correct and praised the Treasurer and Clerk’s office for their checks and balances.
