REPORT OF THE <br /> COMMITTEE ON FINANCE <br /> DATE: February 18, 1997 Re: Comm. No. 139 <br /> PLACE: Councilroom <br /> TIME: 10:30 A.M. <br /> Chair and Members <br /> Hawaii County Council <br /> Hilo, Hawaii 96720 <br /> Your Committee on Finance, to which was referred Resolution No. 40, reports as follows: <br /> Resolution No. 40, transmitted by Legislative Auditor Constance Kiriu, via Communication <br /> <br /> No. 139, dated February 5, 1997, approves an extended scope of work to the County's External <br /> Financial Audit Contract <br /> <br /> No. 94207 with Deloitte & Touche LLP. Section 8 of the contract provides for amendments to <br /> the Contract if the scope of work to be done must be extended beyond that covered in the original <br /> contract. <br /> Pursuant to Article X, Section 10-13 of the Hawaii County Charter, the county council shall <br /> provide at least once every year for an independent audit...the audit shall be made by a certified <br /> public accountant or firm of certified public accountants, designated by the council. <br /> The following items require an amendment to the scope of work for Contract No. 94207: <br /> 1. Environmental Protection Agency rules now require a special financial review and <br /> report to be conducted in conjunction with landfill closures. This report is needed <br /> to allow the County to self-insure the pre-and post-closure and corrective action of <br /> our landfills. The report will be paid for by the Department of Public Works. <br /> 2. During the 1996 External Audit, the contractor provided additional auditing <br /> services to the Department of Water Supply in order that the External Audit could <br /> be completed on time. The Department of Water Supply will pay the additional <br /> services. <br /> Your Committee on Finance is in accord with the purpose and intent of Resolution No. 40 and <br /> recommends its adoption. <br /> Ikc <br /> Ayes Nues A&E F.X <br /> Respectfully submitted <br /> CHUNG X gA~IMIT <br /> LEITHEAD-TOnn X C ~ TEE ON FINANCE <br /> SANTANGELO X ~ L <br /> SMITH X <br /> TvI,Ex x AARON S.Y~HUNG, CHAI <br /> vncorvc x FC REPORT NO. <br /> ARAKAKI, E.o.M.
