The City Commission created the Audit Committee in the late 1970’s with the document "Structure,
Role, and Scope of the Audit Committee."
The Audit Committee is comprised of four members as follows: "Two Commissioners with some
expertise in finance, accounting, or management if available; and two citizens with some expertise in
finance, accounting, or management." Members are appointed to two-year staggered terms, and the
terms of one Commissioner and one citizen are to begin on March 1 each year.
The role of the Audit Committee is to advise the Commission regarding selection of an auditor, monitor
the audit while in process, and review the comprehensive annual financial report in detail and forward a
recommendation to the Commission.
This board currently has one vacancy and one applicant.
Applicant seeking Reappointment:
Sue Becker

Respectfully submitted,
