What’s in it
AI summary The auditor of state will no longer have a limit on how much money they can collect in fees from cities for periodic examinations. This change also means the auditor must provide financial management training to city officials regardless of how much fee money is collected.1
Read the official explanation
6(11) authorizes the auditor of state to establish and collect a periodic examination fee from cities that are not required to have an audit or required fiscal year examination during a fiscal year. The auditor of state is required to base the fees on a sliding scale, based on the city’s budgeted gross expenditures, to produce total revenue of not more than $375,000 for each fiscal year. Current law also requires the auditor of state to provide or contract for training to city officials on municipal financial management if the periodic examination fees collected in a fiscal year exceed $375,000. This bill eliminates the $375,000 cap on total periodic examination fees collected by the auditor of state. The bill also removes the prerequisite of exceeding the $375,000 periodic examination fee threshold in order to require the auditor of state to provide or contract for training to city officials on municipal financial management. The bill applies to fiscal years beginning on or after July 1, 2019.
