AGENDA ITEM
TO: THE HONORABLE MAYOR AND MEMBERS OF THE CITY COUNCIL
FROM: ALAN KREIMEIER, DIRECTOR OF ADMINISTRATIVE SERVICES/ CFO
VIA: F. M. DELACH, CITY MANAGER
DATE: June 23, 2008
SUBJECT: PRESENTATION FROM CITY AUDITOR (LANCE SOLL AND LUNGHARD, LLP)
REGARDING THE NEW ROLE OF COUNCILMEMBERS IN THE AUDIT
PROCESS
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends that the City Council receive the information from the City Auditors
regarding Council's new role in the audit process and direct staff as necessary to meet the
new requirements.
BACKGROUND:
Beginning with the 2007-08 fiscal year auditors of California cities must comply with the
requirements of the Statement of Auditing Standards No. 114, "The Auditors
Communication With Those Charged With Governance". Statements on Auditing Standards
(SASs) are issued by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA) and
apply to all industries in connection with the financial statement audit. SAS No.1 14 is one
of a series of statements intended to improve the auditing process as a result of perceived
audit failures in connection with companies such as Enron. The statements are also an
attempt to narrow the "expectation gap" between the CPAs' understanding of the services
they provide and the public's expectation of those services.
Mr. Richard Kikuchi, a Partner in the City's Audit firm, will be outlining the new
requirements for Council and scope of the responsibilities of the audit firm. Particularly as
they relate to the upcoming audit of the FY 2007-08 financial statements.
