The San Isidro ISD Board of Trustees approved professional services with Raul Hernandez for the 2024/25 annual audit. The motion, made by Trustee Velinda Reyes and seconded by Trustee Albino Alaniz Jr., passed with all present trustees voting yea and one absent.
Trustees discussed timeline and past challenges: Trustee Velinda Reyes noted that Mr. Hernandez had previously faced difficulties obtaining information; Superintendent Elsa V. Morris and Trustee David Garza discussed the need for coordination to ensure a smooth transition should the district seek a different auditor. Leonel Olivarez confirmed the audit deadline in January and explained that the district may advertise for audit services at any time.
Board members examined contract amounts and retainer details during the discussion; the record shows a referenced $29,000 amount with a $6,500 retainer component for the prior year’s audit and that recent mitigation-related legal services were billed to insurance.
