DA revises resolution to correct audit‑finding language, calls for monthly reconciliation between Clerk and Treasurer

The district attorney's office presented a revised resolution that amended the title and struck wording incorrectly suggesting repeated audit findings across fiscal years. The revision narrows the resolution to reference the 2025 draft State Auditor findings and asks for corrective actions focused on reconciliation between the County Clerk’s office and the County Treasurer.

The DA's staff explained the reconciliation finding appeared in the draft 2025 audit (referred to in the transcript as audit finding 2025‑1) and that the 2023 and 2024 reports did not contain the same language. The DA recommended the board request monthly reconciliations between the two offices to ensure the checkbook balances match bank statements and to prevent misposted items.

Commissioners debated whether to reinsert two sections from an earlier draft; staff noted those sections had not been posted publicly as part of the DA's recommendation and would need to be rebrought for proper posting. The board indicated willingness to adopt the DA's revised version and later add the other sections as a separate, properly noticed item.
