FY2023 Auditor Findings, Copy of the Official Audit

In the interest of financial transparency, we'd like to note that the FY2023 Audit was completed in December 2025.  During the January 15th, 2026 City Council Meeting, materials were published in the online City Council Agenda.  At the January 15th meeting,  the City's Lead Auditor (Benjamin Cohen of KDP/Sorren) was physically present at the meeting to discuss the findings.    Mayor Richardson dismissed the Auditor after his presentation and Council comments. Citizens were never given an opportunity to ask questions to the Auditor about the City's Audit report.
