SUBMITTED BY: Paul Nerland, County Administrative Officer
SUBJECT: Retroactive Amendment No. 1 to Audit Services Agreement No. 24-292 with CliftonLarsonAllen, LLP
RECOMMENDED ACTION(S):
TITLE
Approve and authorize the Chairman to execute a retroactive Amendment No. 1 to Audit Services Agreement, amending Agreement No. 24-292 with CliftonLarsonAllen, LLP, effective September 23, 2024, with no change to the term, revising the scope of the Agreement, authorizing the Auditor-Controller/Treasurer-Tax Collector or the County Administrative Officer to sign audit engagement letters, authorizing the County Administrative Officer to request additional services if required, and increasing the maximum compensation by $342,226 to a total not to exceed $1,259,315.
REPORT
Approval of the recommended action will retroactively amend Agreement 24-292 with CliftonLarsonAllen, LLP (CLA), to increase the maximum compensation amount to include audits of the County's grant programs issued by the Board of State and Community Corrections and the California Department of Insurance. Although the County in its Request for Proposal for External Audit Services, sought external audit services for these programs, neither CliftonLarsonAllen's proposal nor Agreement 24-292 included those services. The recommended amendment adds those services. Approval of the recommended action will also allow for revision of the scope of the agreement to authorize the County Administrative Officer to request additional services, if required, to a maximum compensation not to exceed $200,000 over the whole term of the agreement, to remove incorrect references to a Treasury Oversight audit which is not covered by the agreement, and to authorize the Auditor-Controller/Treasurer-Tax Collector or the County Administrative Officer, or the CAO's designee, to sign annual audit engagement letters. There is no additional Net County Cost associated with the recommended act...
