Summary & Background:
The Finance Department requests approval of the recommended renewal to provide annual audit services. All local governments in Georgia are required to submit audited financial statements to the State of Georgia Department of Audits and Accounts under O.C.G.A. 36-81-7. This code section also requires the State Auditor review these financial statements to ensure compliance with generally accepted accounting principles, generally accepted government auditing standards, and federal and state regulations.
Scope of Work: In addition to auditing the County’s annual financial statement, this contract also includes the required annual audits specific to federal and state grants under federal OMB Uniform Guidance. Additionally, the Georgia Department of Human Services (DHS) requires the County to submit audited supplementary information relative to the DHS funded grants each program year. In order to continue receiving grant awards from Federal and State agencies, these audit services must be performed. T-SPLOST annual audit requirements are also included under this contract. As in previous years, the audit of the County’s annual defined benefit plan is also contained within this contract.
