Board reviews draft corrective action plan after state audit; staff to refine responses
Summary
Business Manager Kristen Murphy reviewed six state-audit recommendations and the district’s draft corrective action plan; the Board will prioritize policy 5512 on reserves and meet with its audit committee before submission within the 90‑day period.
The Board discussed a draft Corrective Action Plan prepared in response to a recent state audit. Kristen Murphy said the draft is under review with legal, financial and other advisors and walked the Board through the six areas of recommendation identified by auditors.
Murphy emphasized that the district is revising policy and financial practices to address recommendations, including a priority review of policy #5512 on reserves. The district plans to use feedback from its financial advisor, Rick Timbs, and the Building Condition Survey to guide planning, and will meet with the audit committee to review the corrective action plan before formally submitting it within the 90‑day deadline.
Board members discussed the difference between multi‑year projections used for budgets and the retrospective analysis auditors perform. Murphy noted the district will look at underused funds to determine whether monies can be moved into current priorities. No formal vote was taken at this meeting on the corrective action plan itself.
