Summary of Request:
The Irish Beach Water District (IBWD) has adopted Resolution No. 2026-01 requesting approval from the Mendocino County Board of Supervisors to substitute its required annual financial audit with a biennial audit, as permitted under California Government Code section 26909(b)(1).
State law allows this substitution only with the unanimous consent of both the District’s governing board and the County Board of Supervisors. IBWD has unanimously requested that the Board of Supervisors approve substituting the annual financial audit with a biennial audit.
If approved, the biennial audit schedule would begin with the fiscal years ending 2024 and 2025, with reports submitted to the State Controller’s Office, County Auditor, and LAFCO following completion of each two-year cycle.
Alternative Action/Motion:
Do not approve resolution, thereby leaving the annual audit requirement in place.
