Board approves March payroll and accepts internal audit noting technical findings
Summary
Regents approved March 2026 payroll and miscellaneous claims and accepted an internal audit that found mostly technical errors and recommended policy alignment around meal reimbursements and sampling procedures.
The Board of Regents approved March 2026 payroll and miscellaneous claims following a recommendation from the Finance Committee. Regent Jerry Hamilton moved to approve the payroll and claims; Regent Larry Spradley seconded and the motion passed on a roll-call vote with all Regents voting aye.
Chairman Jeffrey summarized the Internal Audit discussion, noting that the Finance Committee reviewed the audit and discussed expanded sampling methods. The minutes record that Regents observed the findings were "technical in nature and represented a small percentage overall," and that policy compliance questions—particularly around meal reimbursements—may require future revisions to align with updated state requirements. Regent Spradley moved to approve and accept the Internal Audit Report; Regent Walker seconded and the motion passed unanimously.
The minutes do not list dollar totals for payroll or the audit’s numeric error rate. The Board discussed policy alignment and signaled that updated policies might be drafted to ensure compliance with state rules.
