FROM Craig A. Larson Director of Finance SUBJECT Financial Audit Vendor Selection ISSUE Who should the Village select to provide professional auditing services for the 2006 fiscal year and subsequent years through 2010 RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends City Council approve Clifton Gunderson LLP to provide professional auditing services for the 2006 fiscal year and subsequent fiscal years through 2010. DISCUSSION Staff recommended to Council at the September budget retreat that the Village re-bid the 2006 fiscal year and subsequent four year audit services. The recommendation was to accelerate the process by one year. Grant Thornton has been the Village s audit firm the last four years and was scheduled to conduct the 2006 financial audit. The recommendation to go to bid early was made for two reasons. First Grant Thornton s pricing schedule had escalated to a high level. Grant Thornton s fees for the 2006 audit were 43 000. Second Grant Thornton recently sold its governmental auditing branch to BKD LLP. Given the change in ownership and the proposed audit fees it was my recommendation to re-bid the audit services. Staff identified and provided requests-for-proposals to 12 audit firms. The audit firms contacted were Swanhorst and Company 8400 E Crescent Pkwy Suite 600 Greenwood Village CO 80111 Clifton Gunderson LLP 6399 S Fiddlers Green Cir.
