This item is agendized at the request of the Committee chair for a discussion regarding the Measure A Report.

Summary

 

The Committee Chair directed staff to agendize a discussion regarding the June 30, 2024, Measure A Report.

 

As part of that discussion, the Chair asked that the City Attorney’s Office clarify the ability to have an independent audit of Measure A Funds, considering the 2018 California Appellate case of Johnson vs County of Mendocino (Attachment A). Specifically, to address the mitigation of risk as to the possibility of invalidation.

 

Additionally, the Committee would like to consider sending written questions to the City’s current outside auditors and questions for the city’s forensic accountants involved in the review of Measure A transactions (Attachments B & C).

 

Attachment A - Johnson v. County of Mendocino
