Description
Audit and Accountability Committee Meeting 071322
A
I'll
start
with
I'll
call
to
order
and
start
with
the
pledge
of
allegiance.
A
A
As
well
as,
if
you
can't
see
the
presentation,
I
did
send
it
to
you
via
email.
The
presentation
is
also
part
of
your
packet.
In
case
you
can't
see.
B
D
C
A
Third
page,
it's
staff
reports,
which
is
roman
numeral
five
and
it's
a
discussion
of
ongoing
audits
for
the
third
quarter
of
fiscal
year
2022.
The
first
report
that
we
are
going
to
present,
which
is
also
part
of
your
packet
right
here.
It's
a
complete
report
of
the
special
assignment
field
use
license
agreement,
compliance
audit.
A
That
is
the
entire
final
report.
It
is
30
pages
long.
A
So
in
essence,
council
member-
it
was
a
directive
by
council
for
us
to
look
over
and
review
the
little
league
and
base
and
softball
league
applications
for
them
to
use
our
facilities
for
free.
A
E
A
So
what
we
did
was
we
reviewed
each
and
every
point
of
of
the
contract.
Yes,
and
for
each
of
those
the
the
report
is
basically
each
request
or
requirement
it's
either
they
comply
or
they
did
not
comply.
A
So
these
are
the
the
most
important
pertinent
findings,
which
is
number
one:
the
seven
youth
and
softball
leagues
that
were
reviewed
for
a
total
of
14
license
agreements
because
it
is
two
years
it
was
concluded
that
the
leagues
both
complied
and
did
not
comply
with
the
various
provisions
written
in
the
license
agreements.
A
C
Ask
a
question:
yes,
sir:
okay
and
the
quality
coach
knows
this
and
and
you
you
get
together
with
the
directors
of
the
league
and
you
tell
them
hey
you're
missing
this
information,
you
have
a
deadline,
you
comply
and
they
just
don't
comply
right.
I
said
that
hard
stuff
is
trying
to
get
people
back.
E
Just
to
answer
your
question,
so
yes,
we,
you
know
it's
it's
like
pulling
teeth
right.
Sometimes
these
people
and
being
able
to
comply
hey.
We
need
this
and
they're
used
to
hey
open
the
gates
and
everybody
belongs.
Oh,
it's
everybody
everybody's
on
their
own.
So
last
couple
of
years
now,
now
than
the
last
two
three
years,
we
haven't
been
tying
the
screws.
Now
you
got
to
follow
a
certain
process.
Okay
and
you
need
certain
documentation.
Has
it
been
challenging?
Yes,
it
has
right.
E
Used
to
it,
you
know,
as
you
said,
you
already
opened
the
gates
and
that
don't
like
it
belong
to
delmar,
and
this
one
belonged
to
national
literally
so
now
as
we
as
the
last
couple
of
years,
we
got
on
a
checklist
and
we're
going
to
try
and
get
them
to
comply
with
what
they
have.
Okay,
now,
to
kind
of
give
you
a
little
brief
history,
as
you
can
see,
we
did
here
in
2021.
It
was
covered
here
after
coleman
year.
That
was
a
that
was
a
chaotic
year
for
us.
E
Okay,
because
they
told
us
in
april,
hey
april,
21st,
council
dollars
april.
21St
start
the
league
get
the
kids.
Now
they
haven't
played
in
the
year,
get
them
going
right
now.
Let
them
turn
into
insurance
and
as
they
play
as
they're,
going
to
bring
in
stuff
so
and
then
boom
stop
him,
and
I
think
we
stopped
him
and
do
because
corbin
rose
again
and
then
come
back
and
play
again
in
july,
because
then
and
then
october
hit
and
stop
them
again.
So
you
know
I'm.
D
E
Make
it
it's
delivered
2021,
but
it
was
a
very
challenging
and
chaotic
unusual
type
of
season
that
we
had,
because
we
were
trying
to
meet
this.
But
yet
we
were
like
play
as
you
go
turn
in
as
you
go
and
that's
because
we
were
given
the
record
and
the
kids
have
been
playing
the
year.
They
wanna
they
don't.
E
You
know
I'm
a
coach
as
well
and,
and
I
know
it's
important-
to
go
and
play
and
and
but
then
I
don't
understand
on
the
administrative
side
that
we
have
to
follow,
we'll
have
just
follow
guidelines
and
that's
what
and
I
think
this
this
audit
actually
here
made
us
aware
a
lot
of
things
that
we
can
make
it
up
now.
You
know
I.
E
E
Well,
which
background
check
national
local,
do
I
go
to
ponies?
Do
I
go
to
little
leagues,
so
everybody
can
kind
of
tell
you
so
there's
a
lot
of
things
that
with
going
through
this
audit,
that
yes,
I
agree,
there's
some
findings
that
we
didn't
do
and-
and
I
think
my
staff
can
do
a
better
job
of
kind
of
tightening
the
screws
and
make
sure
that
we
do
this,
and
I
think
I
think
we
have
a
process
and
already
set
it
just
a
matter
of.
E
If
you
see
the
whole
thing,
is
you
know
making
sure
that
put
them,
for
example,
on
the
deadline?
Hey
for
example,
january
23
or
30th?
That's.
E
E
B
Definitely
get
back
just
to
follow
up
on
another
question
on
his
when
you
do
advise
them
that
they're
missing
something.
Is
it
all
verbal.
E
C
A
And
so
that's
one
thing
that
they
told
us
that
they
have
to
do
so
going
off
on
that.
That
was
one
of
the
reasons
that
this
audit
was
conducted:
the
status
of
the
501c3
status
for
fiscal
year
2021,
not
all
leagues,
provided
their
own
respective
501c3
status,
and
that's
because
that
wasn't
a
requirement
back.
Then
it
became
a
requirement
as
of
september
2021
and
for
fiscal
year
2022,
all
seven
leagues
complied
by
providing
their
own
501
secretaries.
D
D
E
E
A
A
No,
no
I'm
listening
in
okay!
Thank
you.
So
the
next
page
has
the
third
finding,
which
is
the
990
form.
1990
and
form
status
was
reviewed
again.
This
was
a
requisite
that
was
put
in
place
in
september
2021.
A
So
for
fiscal
year
2021
there
was
no
documentation
on
file
for
any
of
these
seven
weeks
and
that's
because
it
wasn't
a
requirement.
It
was
a
requirement
for
this
year.
However,
two
leagues
did
comply
by
submitting
their
forms.
Three
leads
were
not
in
compliance,
since
they
submitted
a
copy
of
an
electronic
notice.
Confirmation
from
the
irs.gov,
but
no
copy
of
the
990an
form
was
provided.
C
C
E
E
A
So
in
essence,
what
happened
was
they
changed
names
and
they
were
saying
that
they
were
completely
different
league.
Yet
in
reality
everything
had
remained
the
same:
pres
boards,
leagues,
president,
everything
and
the
nine
nineties.
Again
it
was
a
learning
curve
with
coach,
his
staff
and
my
staff
as
well,
because
we
thought
well
turn
over
your
990.
A
Yet
the
990,
since
it's
it
became
a
wreck,
was
a
requisite
this
year.
It
doesn't
take
into
effect
until
the
following
year,
because
I
naively
thought
that
it's
like
your
1030s
and
your
your
your
regular
income
income
taxes.
D
A
For
it's
it's
completely
time
to
a
different
timeline.
Correct
me!
If
I'm
wrong
elia,
it's
september,
30th
right
when
when
that's
their
their,
I
have
all.
D
Three
leagues
that
they
have
three
leagues,
the
ones
that
they
have
electorally
noticed.
They
started
the
fiscal
year
like
ours
since
september,
to.
C
B
A
They
were
having
issues
with
it.
What
they
submitted
was
just
a
copy
of
the
electronic
notice
confirmation,
not
necessarily
the
actual.
B
E
B
E
F
E
That's
that
just
that
was
just
enforced
for
2020
october
1st
2021
through
september
32.
A
So
now
the
next
page
is
finding
number
four.
A
We
had
to
we
wrapped
up
our
audit
may
26th
25th
of
this
year,
because.
A
The
like
coach
was
saying
they
were
taking
long
in
in
and
submitting
the
information.
So
when
we,
when
we
closed
this
audit,
two
of
the
license
agreements
have
not
been
signed
by
by
neither
by
city
managers
nor
legal
as
of
right
now
coach,
I
think
all
of
all,
but
one
more.
E
A
The
recommendations
is
within
the
first
management's
response
within
the
report.
They
partially
agreed
to
that
what
they,
what
they
agreed
to
was
that
we
suggested
for
them
to
to
think
of
these
applications.
Like
the
third
party
funding
that
the
city
does
what
how
that
happens
is
the
of
course.
There
are
also
501c3
and
they
submit
an
application
and
they
submit
all
the
information
prior
to
giving
them
to
for
prior
to
the
city,
giving
them
a
yes
or
no.
A
E
E
Next
year,
just
an
fyi,
ladies
and
gentlemen,
the
council
has
said
that
they're
going
to
start
charging
ten
dollars
for
every
kid.
Now
we
don't
make
decisions
about
making
money.
We
don't
make
any
money.
We
lose
close
to
about
two
hundred
thousand
dollars
a
year,
just
on
maintaining
fields,
and
we
don't
get
anything
from
the
leagues
all
right.
A
Presented
it
to
coach
and
they
did
a
response.
We
presented
that
response,
as
well
as
the
report
to
city
managers
and
mr
to
mr
salman
and
mr
mia
and
everything
that
was
the
only
partial
they
all
agree.
They
agreed
to
all
of
them,
except
for
that
one
they
were
like.
No,
we
were
not
going
to
send
it
to
we're,
not
going
to
take
it
to
our
advisory
board,
because
our
board
is
does
not
function.
That
way,
and,
of
course
that
is
up
to
them,
but
one
of
the.
A
The
recommendation
primarily
was
for
them
to
to
do
the
application
and
receive
everything
prior
to
signing
off.
We
did
also
recommend
policies
and
procedures
to
be
written
on
how
to
do
the
process
of
the
applications
as
well
as.
E
Took
one
time
we
we
even
took
a
a
cpa
to
go
show
them
they
want
to
give
the
non-profit
whatever
they
wanted
to
do
so
we
guide
them
and
we
sit
down
with
them
and
we
tell
them
okay
and-
and
we
do
that
normally
before
we
give
them
the
contract,
we
normally
give
them
the
contract
in
november,
but
so
we
meet
with
them,
sometimes
about
middle
of
middle
of
october.
So
we
can
have
time
to
understand.
You
know,
I
know
most
of
the
leagues
know
the
process
some
of
them.
E
They
still
want
to
be
able
to
get
away
with
things
you
know
old,
school
style
and
and
and
trying
to
find
loopholes,
but
I
think
we're
like
anything
else
if
you're
very
consistent
with
everybody
that
takes
away,
you
know
that
takes
a
lot
of
weight,
a
lot
of
those
little
headaches
that
we
will.
But
that's
so
that's
what
we're
going
to
do.
A
Strengthening
the
the
contract
not
only
strengthen
the
contract,
but
also
clarify
a
lot
of
the
these,
the
wordings
in
the
contract
of
the
stipulations
and
the
requirements
one
of
them
was
just
and
and
that's
why
so
many
of
them
didn't
turn
in
the
information.
Because
when
we
asked
for
financial
statements,
they
would
turn
in
receipts.
A
That's
basically
your
entire
financial
statements
and
we
are
we're
hoping
to
have
a
requirement
as
to
not
necessarily
be
certified
by
a
cpa,
but
maybe
for
someone,
an
accountant
or
whoever
can
sign
off
on
them
and
say
yes,
these
are
correct,
because
that
way
that
that
would
be
the
best
possible
solution
to
have
all
their
revenues,
their
expenses,
everything
having
to
do
with
the
goings-on
with
their
leagues
and
their
because
they
also
have.
C
F
Oh
hello,
hi,
sorry
guys.
I
got
an
ac
problem
and
waited
for
the
ac
guy
to
come
tonight
to
the
house.
A
A
So
there's
an
agenda,
there's
the
agenda
and
then
the
presentation
on
the
second
there
you
go.
A
So
we
basically
just
to
keep
your
price,
sir,
we're
discussing
the.
A
A
It's
basically
some
of
them.
Yes,
they
did
compliant
and
they
didn't.
There
was
a
mixture
of
they
comply
with
some
requirements
and
they
didn't
comply
with
others.
A
The
501c
status
for
this
year,
they
all
have
their
their
own
501
c3
status,
which
was
very
important
council,
have
required
requested
that
the
990n
forms
that's
in
the
process
for
them
to
to
submit
for
this
year,
a
few
submitted
them
and
then,
but
we're
hoping
for
next
year
that
they'll
all
be
in
compliance.
F
The
question
would
it
come
from
this
committee
if
they
are
not
fully
compliant,
that
that
they
not
proceed
with
leasing
from
from
the
city,
the
fields
until
they're,
fully
compliant.
A
I
believe
the
the
committee
itself
does
not
have
the
author,
I
don't
think
we
have
emotions.
D
A
Yes,
but
just
to
let
you
know
for
the
990
and
forms
what
we
from.
What
we
understand
is
that,
since
many
of
them
became
their
own
501c3s
barely
this
year,
they
won't
be
able
to
comply
until
next
year.
Yes,.
F
E
E
E
You
all
maintain
it
and
that's
you
know,
that's
what
some
cities
do
some
cities.
Do
they
we
charge
per
kid
right,
10,
15,
some
city
says:
hey
you
hear
the
keys,
you
maintain
them,
you
take
care
of
them,
give
it
back
to
the
normal
first
and
we'll
take
it
from
there.
So
there's
there's,
but
in
presenting
to
council,
as
of.
E
Changes
is
they're,
gonna
charge
you
ten
dollars
per
kid.
That's
that's.
F
E
Comes
on
you
know
that
the
that
that
checks
and
balances-
you
know
that
that
they
do
and
that's.
C
C
Not
going
to
look
at
those
90
very
close,
okay,
so
I
think
we
need
to
help
my
suggestion.
We
need
to
help
them
to
better
account
for.
B
B
A
Yes,
okay,
the
three
most
the
most
important
requirements.
A
Really,
it
is
the
financials,
but
mostly
it's
the
insurance
and
background
checks,
mostly
because
we
are
dealing
with
children
right,
and
that
was
another
situation
with
background
checks
that
we
need
to
tighten
that
those
requirements,
because
we
do
require
background
checks,
but
we
don't
require
them
to
be
national
and
we
should
some
of
them.
It's
every
two
years.
A
Things
happen
even
in
months,
and
we
also
don't
have
if
it's
against
children
any
any.
D
A
And
that's
where
you
say:
no,
you,
you
can't
be
a
part
of
it,
but
we've
had
domestic
violence.
We've
had
other
situations
that
pop
up,
and
there
is
nothing
there's,
no
clarification
within
the
contract
and
that's
another
thing
that
we
did
tell
coach.
We
need
to
look
at
it.
You
need
to
look
at
it.
It
needs
to
be
strengthened
because
we
don't
want.
A
So
those
are
all
things
that
came
up
within
this
audit
and
more
than
anything,
we
just
want
to
make
sure
that
the
children
are
safe
and
minimize
the
risk
of
the
city.
E
B
Guidelines
and
speaking
of
safety
is
there
any
kind
of
safe
security
out
there?
Do
you
is
that
on
them.
E
That
is
on
them
yeah,
and
it's
good
funny
saying,
because
one
of
our
rafa
martinez,
our
part
member,
asks
the
same
question
about
safety
and
we
can
put
it
in
the
contract
that
you
know
requires
some
type
of
security,
which
we
that's
one
of
the
ideas
that
we're
saying
that
we're
going
to
at
least
have
some
type
of
security
during
the
games.
You
know
for,
for
safety
reasons.
A
And
going
back
to
backgrounds,
I
mean
one
of
the
situations
that
arose
was
that
one
league
was
saying
well.
Do
I
have
to
get
my
own
background
on
this
particular
person,
because
he
also
is
a
is
a
volunteer
for
this
other
league,
I'm
like
yes,
you
have
to
have
your
own.
F
D
D
A
The
actually
the
report
was
sent
out
today,
mostly
because
it
is
a
lengthy
report.
We
send
it
out
to
to
to
the
council
for
them
to
peruse
and
review
for
this
upcoming
council
meeting
and
then
on
friday.
I
will
be
sending
a
summarization
highlighting
the
most
the
the
recommendations
and
the
responses
as
well.
E
And
proud
of
my
staff
there's
a
couple
of
things
that
you
know
we
we
we
can
do
better,
and
one
of
the
things
is
that
we
need
to
do
is
like
make
sure
we
put
a
deadline,
and
just
do
this
time.
As
the
third
party
is
saying,
and
that's
going
to
alleviate
a
lot
of
what
this
one
got
slipped
in
this
one
got
this
one
didn't
get
signed
and
hey
guys.
E
It's
due
whatever
february
1st
everything's
got
to
be
ready
to
go,
no
more
excuses,
everybody's
got
their
501c
and
you
know
who,
who
might
put
my
background
checks
and
everything
go
so
that
we
can
have
it
ready
and
we're
not
chasing
our
tail
there
towards
the
end
to
get
these
leaks,
because
these
guys
they
turn
it
into
you
and
the
next
day
they
are
ready
to
play.
It
wait
a
minute
man
I
mean
I
want.
C
D
E
E
C
E
E
A
F
C
That
that
that
was
that
was,
I
don't
know
I
got
it,
I
mean
you
guys
did
amazing
job
if
they
got
it.
No.
D
E
F
D
F
F
Stuff
so
now
he's
he's
over
at
district
a
trying
to
get
in
and
he
brings
all
of
the
he
brings
all
of
his
kids
that
want
to
play
at
the
council
to
see
if
we
can
get
him
a
sympathy,
vote.
F
But
if
we
have
rules
and
regulations
thanks
to
mr
gomez
here
since
he
came
on
board,
he
put
in
rules,
regulations
and-
and
this
is
the
list
it
applies
to
peter-
and
it
applies
to
paul
and
everybody
else
in
between
yeah
and
and
if
you
don't
have
it,
you
don't
play.
A
Yes,
you're
correct:
it's
a
coach
and
but
city
council
did
their
ordinance.
Why
why?
Why
are
we?
Why
are
they
being
allowed
to
play?
It's
yes
because
of
the
children,
and
there
is
no
benefit
to
anybody,
but
the
children
and
that's
the
ordinance
they
they're
allowed
to
play,
because,
like
coach
says,
it
is
very,
very
costly
to
maintain
these
when.
F
You
join
the
league,
thinking
you're
in
a
national
organ,
nationally,
organized
league,
but
yet
so
you're
paying
these
league
fees
to
have
your
kid
in
there,
and
it
turns
out
that
the
league,
the
coach
or
whoever
put
this
league
together
hasn't
been
part
of
that
league
in
years,
and
so
those
fees
still
apply.
F
E
Everybody
honest,
but
we're
gonna
get
better
at
it.
We
still,
but
we
we
will
have
a.
You
know,
learn
from
this
and
thank
you
to
our
staff
and
working
with
us
and
dealing
with
stuff,
and
you
know
I
can
use
that
learning
process
and
hopefully
we
can
improve
and
you
know
make
it
work,
make
it
work
for
everyone.
A
No
in
this
one
in
particular,
miss
elliott
was
the
auditor
in
charge
and
she's
a
veteran,
because
she
is
she's.
She's
done
this
for.
E
I
presented
that
to
the
park
sport.
I'm
gonna
go
off
the
top
of
my
head,
so
materials
working
on
fields,
electricity,
light
from
the
month
of
march,
the
1st
to
the
end
of
october
october
31st
on
the
average
and
now
I
could.
I
couldn't
base
myself
on
2021
because
it
would
stop
those
type
of
alright.
So
I
went
with
previous
years
2020
I'm
sorry
2019
and
it
was
close
to
about
1.1
million
dollars
with
everything
light
water.
F
A
So
that
was
the
one
that's
completed
just
for
the
upcoming
other
reviews
that
we
we
are
doing
are.
Is
the
b
solid
waste
department
operations
review
that
was
part
of
our
annual
audit
plan.
The
vehicles
repairs
process
review
again,
that's
another
one.
That's
all
of
these
are
actually
in
the
audit
plan.
There's.
A
Our
unannounced
cash
cash
audits
that.
A
Just
spot
checks
for,
throughout
the
all
the
revenues,
all
the
revenue
receiving
points
that
the
city
has
as
well
as
the
inventory,
and
that's
that's
just
to
keep
us
out
there
and
for
them
to
know
that
we
we
go
and
check
which.
C
Is
the
largest
the
bridge
or
what,
where
you
get
the
most
money,
the
cash.
A
The
bridge
and
tax
tax
is
around
95
million
dollars
bridge
is
I'm
going
to
say
just
as
much,
but
I
50
goes
to
the
general
fund
and
the
other
50
percent.
They
have
they
get
in
their
in
their
enterprise
fund.
A
From
what
I
remember.
Utilities
also
has
around
70
million
dollars,
both
in
sewage
and
water,
because
it's
43
million
for
water
and
around
30
30,
some
million
dollars
in
sewage.
F
But
you
get
to
two
points
of
where
they
receive
cash
and
that's
here
at
city
hall
and
then.
A
C
A
They
are
written
up
and
we
need
a
response
to
to,
depending
on
the
on
the
percentage,
the
amount
there's,
a
response
to
from
management,
regardless.
A
A
Outdated,
some
of
them
are
from
the
90s,
so
we
really
want
to
look
at
them,
make
recommendations
to
strengthen
them
and
perhaps
have
potential
cost
savings.
C
A
Payroll
payroll
has
not
been
updated
since
the
early
90s
rate
and
that
one
right
now
one
of
our
recommendations.
We
have
it
when
we
it's
minute
per
minute,
when
we
do
the
when
we
give
out
or
when
calm
time
is
accumulated
and
as
per
dol.
There
is
a
situation
that
there's
an
eight-minute
rule
that,
if
you're
here
before
for
eight
minutes
before
or
after
it,
pushes
you
back
to
eight
o'clock
and
that
way
it's
mostly
because
if
there's
lines-
and
so
you
won't
be
late-
it
goes
back
to
eight
o'clock.
A
A
There's
also
the
travels
the.
A
Food
and
and
those
are
the
type
of
policies
that
we're
looking
at.
A
So
those
are
the
reports
that
we're
doing
as
of
right
now,
the
next
number
roman
numeral,
six,
it's
administrative-
and
I
just
wanted
to
let
you
know
the
ordinance.
I
don't
know
if
you
have
the
ordinance
for
the
audit
and
accountability
committee.
So
basically
it's
ordinance
2020.
A
This
is
what
we're
doing
so
that
was
the
ordinance
for
this
particular
committee.
The
overview
of
the
internal
audit
depart
division
is
basically
this
division
conducts
independent
and
objective
reviews
of
the
city
of
laredo
operations
and
procedures,
and
reports,
findings
and
recommendations
to
the
city
manager
and
to
city
council.
A
In
order
to
eva
to
accomplish
our
objectives,
we
perform
the
following:
evaluate
the
adequacy
of
internal
control
structure,
assess
compliance
with
written
policies
and
procedures
as
well
as
state,
as
well
as
state
and
federal
laws,
and
regulations,
evaluate
the
reliability,
integrity
of
accounting,
reporting
systems
and
procedures,
verify
the
existence
of
assets
and
ensure
proper
safeguards
for
their
protection,
review,
effectiveness
and
efficiency
of
city's
resources,
make
appropriate
constructive
suggestions
and
recommendations
and
investigate,
reported
occurrences
of
fraud,
embezzlement,
theft,
waste,
etc
and
recommend
controls
to
prevent
or
detect
such
occurrences.
A
So
yes,
one
of
our
major
objectives
is
to
look
at
the
internal
controls
of
the
city
and
to
assess
the
compliance
with
written
policies
and
procedures,
and
one
one
will
sound
like
a
broken
record,
because
we
will
be
saying
this,
we
told
coach,
we
told
building,
we
have
no
policies
and
procedures,
written
policies
and
procedures.
We
have
no
standard
operating
procedures.
A
We
can't
really
go
and
audit
if
we
don't
have
that.
So
one
of
the
things
that
we
will
be
asking
or
as
a
recommendation
for
many
of
these
audits,
the
first
thing
will
be:
you
need
to
write
down
your
your
policies
and
procedures.
A
A
It
would
actually
the
policy
procedures
come
from
the
departments
themselves.
Yes,
and
that's
actually
a
very
good
point,
because
even
our
division
should
have
our
police.
A
Policies
and
procedures
those
will
be
forthcoming.
I
have
some
that
I
had
from
my
previous
work
that
I
was
able
to
they.
They
gave
them
to
me
and.
F
One
of
the
things
that
says
here
is
evaluated:
the
city's
risks
for
the
relevant
integrity
of
financial
and
operational
information,
foreign,
invest,
clients
with
laws,
grants
and
contracts,
laws,
grants
and
contracts.
F
F
So
when
so,
I
would
suggest
that
that
your
office,
when
ordinances
are
written
and
adopted
by
council
or
even
before
it
goes
to
agenda
item,
and
maybe
you
get
a
hold
of
something
like
that,
because
it's
supposed
to
be
coming
from
our
legal
department.
But
if
our
legal
department's
riding
them
too,
then
some
they
need
to
get.
A
D
C
Another
question:
okay:
how
involved
do
you
get
with
the
with
the
the
cafe
with
your.
A
So
on
that
note,
I
also
wanted
to
introduce
you
to
my
internal
audit
staff
for
a
city
this
large.
It's
only
myself
and
three
three
staff
members,
which
is
ms
elia
rodriguez,
the
internal
auditor
too.
A
D
A
Both
has
her
bachelor's
degree
and
master's
degree,
so
we
are
a
small
we're,
a
small
division
and
one
of
the
reasons
I
wanted
to
bring
this
up
with
their
degrees
and
part
of
the
ordinance
is
that
they
we
need
to
be
certified
or
we're
encouraged
to
be
certified,
not
necessarily
that
we
have
to
so.
I
am
also
proposing
your
our
budget
for
this
upcoming
year.
A
This
is
just
our
our
budget
expenditures.
It
went
up
a
little
the
personnel
we
really,
I
we
don't
have
any
say
so
on
the
personnel,
that's
more
payroll
and
how
the
how
workers
comp
and
all
of
that
is
being
calculated.
A
The.
However
we
the
following
page,
I
did
request
ten
thousand
dollars
for
the
following.
It's
study.
A
For
the
certificate
for
certification,
which
is
four
thousand
dollars,
it's
a
thousand
dollars
per
person,
and
basically
it's
either
for
the
cia,
the
cia,
or
even
the
cfe
or
other
certifications
that
the
iaf
does
provide.
I
did
I
do
encourage
the
cfe,
which
is
a
certified
fraud
examiners.
A
A
A
So,
and
that
was
for
four
thousand
dollars,
there's
also
food
and
ice
for
committee
management
meetings,
250,
the
professional
development
travel
expenses
for
certification.
Unfortunately,
laredo
does
not
have
certification
centers
to
test
for
here
in
laredo,
so
you
either
have
we
all
to
complete
these
exams.
It
either
has
to
be
in
san
antonio
or
in
corpus.
So
if
we
are
requiring
these
or
we're
encouraging
these,
we
are
asking
for
two
thousand
seven
hundred
and
eighty
four
dollars
and
then
the
license
and
permit
fees.
It's
the
application
and
exam
fees.
A
It's
three
thousand
five
hundred
dollars
and
I
just
included
the
rental
of
equipment
because
our
copyright
machine
did
go
up
so
again.
This
is
just
the
proposed
and
I
hope
that
come
budget
time
it's
it's
approved.
A
A
So
the
another,
so
that's
our
budget
and
then
just
wanted
to
establish
the
upcoming
upcoming
committee
meetings
to
have
more
of
a
fixed
date
and
fixed
date
and
time
and
location
if
need
be.
I
know
5
30
works
for
mr
felix
velasquez,
I'm
for
you
as
well.
I
believe-
and
I
think
dr
martin
martinez
also
said.
D
A
Works
best
for
him,
but
I
would
like
for
it
to
be,
and
sometime
in
september
I
know
august,
especially
for
council
members
budget
is
coming
and
those
are
a
lot
that's
a
long
week
so
but
come
september.
I
do
want
to
present
the
annual
audit
plan
and
if
we
can
establish
the
time
and
date
that
would
be
very
beneficial
for
me
and
for
you
as
well.
So
I
don't
know
if
you
want
to
every
two
months
meet
or
once
a
quarter.
B
Frequently
than
not
as
far
as
me
like
it's
their
5
30s
are
fine
with
me.
Wednesdays
are
just
tough
because
I
have
like
three
meetings
at
work
on
wednesdays,
but
I
I
mean
I
can
I
can
manage,
but
would.
A
Tuesdays
be
better,
why
would
tuesdays
be
work
better
for
you.
A
Okay,
would
you
two
would
tuesdays,
be
you.
A
Tuesdays
is
this
location?
Okay,
this
is
fine
or
public
works
or.
F
A
So
I
will
then
tuesdays
at
5
30.
Here
then
I
will
be
sending
out
I'm
preparing
something
for
sometime
in
september
and.
C
One
of
the
things
that
I
mentioned
earlier
councilman
before
you
got
here
is-
and
I
asked
if
the
external
auditors
still
prepare
management
letter
comments.
Those
are
very
important
okay
and
they
need
to
be
they're
out.
They
they're
already
being
addressed
by
their
department.
C
A
I
don't
have,
I
have
a
copy,
but
I
actually.
C
C
A
A
Any
other
any
other
questions
matters
or
anything,
no.
F
Speaking
of
speaking
of
food
and
ice,
you
brought
something.
A
Tonight,
yes,
anything
else
that
any
other
questions.
A
Well
then,
motion
twitter.
