A

You, sir item 2, is approval of the minutes. Jalaja June 17th in July 16th the deferred, so we will take May 28th up.

A

I, properly moved and seconded all those in favor signify by saying aye I was opposed. Now is have it item 3. Is your audit committee report and chairman seeking.

C

For three hours this afternoon and we just adjourned, we took up some additional reporting from mr. Majer neck, which was answering questions that were submitted in writing from council members. There was, then, a discussion period in which the mayor presented his response to the observations that were in the preliminary draft Audit Committee audit report. We then had councilmembers time, which was aimed at being questions of our auditor and others involved in the audit process.

C

We adjourned that portion of the meeting and are going to reconvene tentatively on August 15th at 3 o'clock in city council chambers. We then took up the discussion of the internal auditor reporting structure, which we all agreed was something that needed to be looked at and will be looked at once we get through this internal audit process. It'll come through the audit committee and then be brought to City Council likely will be on the next audit committee agenda at the end.

C

If not, it will be taken up before the next audit committee, which is our annual meeting, so we can get it to City Council as quickly as possible. I think that I've captured what happened in three hours just a moment ago and I'm certainly happy to allow any other council member to add anything to that report that they see fit.

A

Councilman Moody.

D

Occurred to me, we ought to be getting our audit report. I mean our when it's due. Could we I'm thinking? We might schedule the meeting at the same time, but.

C

We usually have a meeting of the Audit Committee as I recall in November August.

D

I actually got an extension, so it'll be September, probably when we bring you them.

C

So that, actually, if I might just thinking out loud and not taking it getting too far ahead of ourselves, that may be a good time to take up the structural issue. Okay, yeah. Okay, with that, if there's no other additions, I would submit the report for information purposes only. There was no action taken nor any action needed by this council by this committee very.

A

Good, and the only thing I would add to that, is the discussion about a whistleblower policy to be added to it at.

C

Some point at the.

A

Appropriate committee.

C

And also addition of documents that have already been produced that will be considered by the internal auditor to be distributed to council members very.

A

Good. Thank you. Thank you all right, councillor, moody we'll go to the Committee on real estate.

D

Any matter a few minutes ago and we annexed or we approve the annexation of that property on Macleod Avenue unanimously, so I move that ways. It means to prove that annexation.

A
