Board directs letter to auditor if audits aren’t closed by Feb. 28
Summary
Trustees heard updates on FY23 and FY24 audits and ESSER reporting; they authorized Vice Chair Margaret Hall to work with staff to draft a letter to CLA if audit closure is not in sight by Feb. 28, 2025.
Director of Finance Kendra Salesky updated trustees on progress toward completing the FY23 and FY24 financial audits and on ESSER reporting requirements. The board discussed options for securing auditors for FY24–25 and the timing implications for financial close-out and reporting.
Trustee Margaret Hall moved that she work with Director Salesky and Superintendent Kim Spacek to draft a letter to CLA if closure on the audits is not in sight by Feb. 28, 2025; Paul Turco seconded the motion and it passed 5-0. “Motion to direct Vice Chair Hall to work with Director of Finance Kendra Salesky and Superintendent Kim Spacek to draft a letter to CLA if closure on the audits is not in sight by February 28th, 2025,” the minutes record. The motion is procedural: it authorizes preparatory correspondence but does not itself terminate any contract.
Board members emphasized the need for timely audit completion to ensure compliance with state reporting and to finalize year-end accounting. The minutes do not record CLA’s response or any draft language; follow-up steps were assigned to the vice chair and finance director.
