Tirzah stormwater agreement Background information: The State has agreed to construct a tower at Mt. Tirzah in order to improve public safety communication for the State and the County. Summary of Information: The disturbed area will be greater than 12,000 sq ft, so the State will be required to engineer and construct a stormwater BMP. The BMP will be located on Person County property, so the county will be responsible for maintaining and inspecting the BMP in perpetuity. Stormwater funds will be used to pay for maintenance, which could include mowing, planting, and trash removal and inspections. A detailed stormwater agreement will be created outlining the type of maintenance and inspections required. Recommended Action: Approve staff to enter into a stormwater agreement for the stormwater BMP at Mt. Tirzah. Submitted By: Assistant County Manager, Sybil Tate 19 AGENDA ABSTRACT Meeting date: September 19, 2016 Consent Agenda Title: Fire and Rescue Audit Proposals Summary of Information: As allowed under the current terms of the special purpose audit proposal for the fire and rescue agencies, we have negotiated with the current contracted auditor (Winston, Williams, Creech & Evans) to provide audit services for FY2016 to eight volunteer fire departments. Please note that their proposal does not incorporate Woodsdale Volunteer Fire Department for which they had to exclude due to having a staff member that recently performed some financial services for this agency, disqualifying their firm from being able to offer an independent opinion of Woodsdale’s audit for FY2016. Their estimated cost per agency is offered at $2,750 per report, which is the same amount they charged for the recently published FY2014 fire and rescue audits. Due to the independent opinion issue with Woodsdale, we submitted a request for proposal and received one from William L. Stark and Company (Henderson, NC) who has offered to provide the requested services for Woodsdale Volunteer Fire Department at a cost of $2,950, slightly above the estimate from WWCE. Should both proposals be approved, it is recommended that the total cost of $24,950 be appropriated from fund balance to the contracted services line item in Governing Body, where the previous fire and rescue audit contracts were previously expensed. Recommended Action: To approve both audit proposals and funding as presented for the nine volunteer fire and rescue departments. Submitted By: Amy Wehrenberg, Finance Director 20 Special Purpose Audit Proposal Cash Receipts and Disbursements Audits of Volunteer Fire Departments and Rescue Squad Funded By Person County For the Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 2016 121 August 8, 2016 Person County Finance Office 304 S. Morgan Street, Room 219 Roxboro, NC 27573 We would like to thank you for extending our firm an invitation to submit a proposal to perform the special purpose audits of the Volunteer Fire Departments and Rescue Squad Funded by Person County for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2016. We have provided accounting, tax and audit services for several Volunteer Fire Departments over the last several years (Attachment #1). Response to Request for Proposal 1.

All professionals who work on accounting and auditing engagements that are required to be independent, sign a representation letter when hired and annually thereafter acknowledging their familiarity with the firm’s relevant ethical requirements policies and procedures, particularly with regards to independence.

We utilize industry-leading audit software developed by PPC, a Thomson Reuters company. We utilize PPC’s SMART Practice Aids software that allows us to tailor and streamline our audit programs and practice aids workpapers for each individual audit client based on the industry and the type of audit being provided. The functionality and features of the PPC software enable us to increase audit quality as well as efficiency. The information we obtain during our audit planning and risk assessment procedures and from 424 internal control testing is utilized by our audit team to help generate tailored audit programs for the substantive testing we will perform during our audit fieldwork. After gaining an understanding of the Department’s internal controls and performing our risk assessment, our audit approach will consist of a combination of detail testing and analytic review to obtain reasonable assurance that an account is free of material misstatement. When performing the audit, if we decide that analytical procedures or other substantive procedures do not provide sufficient appropriate audit evidence with respect to the remaining balance of an item, we will perform tests of details to the remaining balance. We will then make a determination as to whether we should use audit sampling or expand our audit procedures to individually significant items to test the remaining balance. If the audit team agrees that audit sampling will be the best way to test the remaining balance, we will make a determination based on risk assessment as to whether we will utilize statistical or non-statistical sampling for this test work. When performing our understanding of the Department’s internal controls and risk assessments for the Department, we will analyze the cost benefit of utilizing automated processes and internal control testing as a method to reduce control risk and possibly reduce the amount of substantive testing that will be required on particular account balances and classes of transactions. If it is determined that it will be beneficial to the audit to utilize automated processes and test controls then an appropriate audit program will be created for that work when creating our audit programs for substantive testing. Our audits do not currently utilize the work of computer audit specialists. Our current audit team has had training in computer auditing techniques and will apply those as deemed appropriate in our planning of the audit. We will deliver the Client Assistance Package that will contain a list of any items that we will need for the audit that are not already outlined in the RFP to the fire departments and rescue squad during our individual, on-site audit planning meeting. We encourage our clients to transmit as many audit items as possible to us electronically. To facilitate this process, we provide each of our clients with a login to our client portal. The portal functions as a secure (encrypted), high-speed medium for the transfer of files between you and our firm. We will communicate our understanding of the terms of the engagement in an engagement letter before the start of fieldwork with management and the board of directors. This engagement letter and any other communications with the board will be with both the individual fire department or rescue squad and the Person County Board of Commissioners. During the audit, if any issues are encountered or information needs to be communicated, we will first meet with management of the individual fire departments or the rescue squad. At the end of the audit, we will obtain a management representation letter from each individual fire department and rescue squad. We will also issue a letter to the individual fire department and rescue squad board of directors. This letter will also 525 be provided to the Person County Board of Commissioners. The letter will detail required communications and list any issues encountered during the audit. We will also be available to present to the individual board of directors and rescue squad and Person County if the parties request us to do so. We will include in the management letter any recommendations we have for strengthening internal controls and any suggestions we may have for increasing the efficiency or effectiveness of the individual fire department or rescue squad’s operations. 5. Our fee proposal for the fiscal year 2016 special purpose audit is $22,000. This breaks down to $2,750 for each fire department and rescue squad. Woodsdale Volunteer Fire Department is not included in this proposal as we are not independent with respect to Woodsdale Volunteer Fire Department. Our audit team for this engagement will consist of the following individuals: A. James Winston, II – Partner responsible for all phases of the audit, approximately 10% of total audit hours B. Tara Roberson – Manager, approximately 30% of total audit hours. C. Alex Elliott – Senior Accountant, approximately 60% of audit hours. Please see the Summary of Costs included as Attachment #3. 6.

The Board at their August 15th meeting approved an application for a business loan in the amount of $50,000 at an interest rate of 1.75% for a ten-year term. Prior to that, two other loans were granted and successfully repaid. At this most recent application review, the Board directed the County Manager to review the Loan Program and bring back updates and revisions. Staff has gathered materials from other jurisdictions that offer a similar small business loan program. A review of that information is included below, highlighting areas that may differ from Person County’s Revolving Loan Program. Franklin County:  Program is managed by their Economic Development Commission and their Committee of 100  Amounts: maximum loan of $99,000 and a minimum of $20,000  Terms: depends on the use of the funds- Fixed Assets (10 years); Equipment (3-5 years); and Working Capital (1-3 years)  Rates: maximum of prime rate with a minimum rate of 4% Orange County:  Amounts: maximum of $50,000 and minimum of $5,000  Terms: maximum term is 5 years (except 7 years for the purchase or improvement of real estate)  Rates: rate is based on the length of the loan term: a. Up to 2 years Prime plus 2% b. 2 up to 3 years Prime plus 2.25% c. 3 up to 4 years Prime plus 2.5% d. 4 up to 7 years Prime plus 3% Roseboro, NC:  Program was recently revised in August of 2016  Amounts: maximum of $25,000 and minimum of $5,000 48  Terms: depends on the use of funds (same as Franklin County above). All loans will not exceed 60 months  Rates: maximum of prime rate with a minimum rate of 4% Kerr Tar Regional Council of Governments:  Program serves the five counties in the Kerr-Tar region, plan reviewed every 5 years  Amounts: maximum of $200,000 or 75% of the total project cost, whichever is lesser; minimum of $25,000  Terms: based on purpose and collateral offered: a. land & building: 15 years b. machinery & equipment: 10 years new, 7 years used c. capital: 5 years  Rates: minimum is 4% or 75% of prime Based on a review of the information gathered, Person County’s current interest rate which is half of prime is not competitive. Setting a minimum rate and a maximum rate is the norm. Recommended Action: Review the information and direct staff on any revisions to the County’s Revolving Loan Program that the Board would like made.
