Contract to Audit
 
Body
SUMMARY:  Request for proposals were sent out.  The City had 6 CPA Firms respond.  Attached is a list of these companies.  It is my recommendation that we use Mauldin & Jenkins, LLC for the next 3 years.  The difference in cost is $650.  The City used these auditors the last 3 years.  They have copies of everything, they know who to talk to and have knowledge of our records.  
 
A new company would need copies of all grants in progress, the new company would need to learn the record keeping methods the city uses, and learn who to talk to about certain matters.   
 
BUDGET ACCOUNT:  This is budgeted in 110-41990-253, 413-41990-253 and 450-41990-253
 
Recommended Action
NECESSARY COUNCIL ACTION:  Approve the recommendation
