Finding Text

Due to a small staff size the city does not have complete segregation of duties.

Corrective Action Plan

The Mayor and Council review monthly financial statements and budget reports to review and question the City Manager and Finance Director accordingly. The City Manager also performs supervisory checks on many areas. Due to the size of the City, the lack of segregation of duties will always exist, but the City has instituted these safeguards to better monitor the City's financial reporting.
