Dear City Council,
Regarding Agenda Item #6 kudos for selection of independent auditor. Just wanted to thank staff for
their recommendation. Per the guidelines, it was a good idea to not renew with Crowe. For similar
reasons, it was good to not go with Maze.
In my opinion, the City Manager should not extend the contract for up to two years. This
needs to go out to bid and come back to council.
PLEASE LOOK AT THE FINE PRINT!!! Year 1 costs $133,500. Years 4 and 5 are optional.
Year 5 will cost us $162,270!
This is a 21% increase of nearly $30K
(that’s a Shakespeare in the Park or a whole bunch of other community amenities).
Please, in FY 2024-25, we need to put this out to bid again. Please put it on your calendar now.
Thanks,
Rhoda Fry
