Commissioner Rader Digest

From Commissioner Jeff Rader:

February 2010

Here are some topics of interest from recent Board of Commissioner meetings:

Audit Committee
Health Care Goals
Public Safety
Speed Zones

Audit Committee
I have been nominated and confirmed by the Board of Commissioners (BOC) to chair its Audit Committee.  This committee, mandated by Section 10 of the DeKalb County Organizational Act, is charged with oversight of the county's annual financial audit. The committee also is empowered to audit the internal operations of county government.  Other members of the committee are Commissioners Elaine Boyer and Lee May.

The financial audit is to ensure that county tax dollars are accurately accounted for and spent consistent with the county budget.  The audit also analyzes financial and operational controls over county spending, and suggests actions to improve these practices.  The internal auditing authority may be used to analyze the overall performance of county operations.  The performance audit, which I discussed in my Oct. 27, 2009 update, is to ensure that county services are delivered in an efficient manner.
