Corrective Action Plan

Finding Reference Number: 2023-011 Description of Finding: The data collection form was not submitted by the September 30, 2024 due date. Response/Corrective Action: Due to fiscal staffing concerns and contracted auditor scheduling and subsequent change in auditors, preparation of all supporting documentation and draft financial statements were significantly delayed as was physical fieldwork, forcing the noncompliance. Upon completion of the 2023 audit, the County will be reliant on the scheduling availability of the County’s appointed auditors to coordinate and complete fieldwork timely to meet the filing for the 2025 audit. The 2024 data collection form was not submitted by the September 30, 2025 due date, and will be completed and filed as timely as the County’s appointed auditors can schedule, coordinate, and complete fieldwork.
