Nutter Fort council votes to explore third‑party forensic audit after executive session
Summary
After an executive session under WV Code §6-9A-4, the Nutter Fort Town Council unanimously approved a motion to research third‑party forensic audit options, including scope, firms and potential costs, and directed staff to report back.
Councilor Charlene Louk moved that the council "look into options for a 3rd party forensic audit to obtain the details of what will be audited, firms available to us, and potential costs, and bring this information back to council," a motion seconded by Councilor Rick Lafferty and approved unanimously. The vote followed an executive session held under West Virginia State Code §6-9A-4; the session began at 6:37 p.m. and concluded at 7:13 p.m. with all council members and City Attorney Dave Glover present.
The motion directs staff to return to a future meeting with options and cost estimates for an independent forensic audit. A roll call recorded in the minutes lists affirmative votes by Councilor Rick Lafferty, Councilor Charlene Louk, Recorder Natalie Haddix, Councilor Karen Phillips and Councilor Shawn Spurlock; the minutes state the motion passed by unanimous vote. The council did not specify a timeline or funding source for any eventual audit contract; those details are to be provided when staff reports back.
