Commission switches Sleepy Creek Watershed signatory and approves auditor's alternative compliance engagement cost

Unidentified Speaker 3 requested a letter clarifying the authorized representative for the Sleepy Creek Watershed, and Unidentified Speaker 2 moved to change the authorized signatory on county documentation from "Mr. Clark" to "Mr. Tuttle." The motion was approved by voice vote.

Unidentified Speaker 3 reported that the auditor's office proposed switching from a single audit to an alternative compliance engagement and asked whether the commission approved a stated price of $363,630 and whether the work could be done remotely rather than on-site. Unidentified Speaker 2 responded that remote completion was acceptable "if they're happy with doing it," and commissioners agreed to proceed with the alternative engagement pending staff coordination.

The commission recorded approval for both the signatory change and the auditor engagement in voice motions; details of contract terms, scope and any required board resolution were not entered into the public record during this session and are to be finalized by staff and the auditor's office.

Next steps: staff will prepare the signatory letter for the Sleepy Creek Watershed and coordinate with the auditor's office on scope, price and remote-work arrangements.
