Audit Program

The city's Independent Internal Audit Program oversees financial, contract compliance, internal control, and performance audits to aid the city in accomplishing its strategic objectives by employing a systematic, disciplined approach to

• Improving organizational operations
• Identifying opportunities to minimize operational and financial risk
• Identifying opportunities to maximize efficiency and effectiveness
• Strengthening public confidence and accountability

Engagement from the City Council and public is critical to advancing the city's mission, so our program is governed by an Audit Committee whose voting membership includes three City Council members and two members of the public.

To assist the Audit Committee in their work, the Independent Audit Program Manager serves as the city's independent and objective liaison to the Audit Committee and is responsible for managing, planning, organizing, and coordinating the activities of the audit program. The Audit Program Manager reports functionally to the Audit Committee and administratively to the City Manager.
