ATTACHMENT B <br />FINAL REPORT OF THE CITIZEN CHARTER REVIEW COMMITTEE <br />D. City Performance Auditor <br />Recommend Amendment to the Charter <br />Vote on Recommendation: Unanimous <br />Add New Section to the Charter As Shown Below <br />New Section City Pef formance Auditor. the city performance auditor shall be <br />appointed by the city council. The pef formance auditor shall conductor cause to <br />be conducted performance audits and may conduct studies intended to measure or <br />improve the performance of city functions following generally accepted <br />government auditing standards. The performance auditor maybe removed from <br />office with or without cause by the city council. The performance auditor shall <br />possess adequate professional proficiency as demonstrated by a relevant <br />certification such as a Certified Public Accountant, Certified Internal Auditor, or <br />Certified Management Accountant, which shall be retained throughout tenure in <br />the position. All audit reports are public records. Tlie city council shall provide <br />for the creation of an audit committee to oversee the performance auditor. The <br />audit committee shall include the city manager and other members as defined by <br />ordinance. Among its duties, the committee shall forward candidate <br />recommendations for the auditor position to the city council. <br />In the initial discussions by the City Council, the consideration of a "possible City auditor <br />position" was one of the specific tasks assigned to the committee. In undertaking this task, the <br />committee reviewed the performance assessment being done by City staff, the types of audit <br />work being done by City staff or contracted out, auditor positions in other jurisdictions; and how <br />a performance auditor might be beneficial to the City of Eugene. <br />Financial Services Division staff provided information to the committee on the types of audits <br />done under the categories of economy and efficiency audits, program audits, and financial -related <br />audits, both internally completed and contracted out. The City uses "service profiles" and <br />"performance measures" as tools in the organization's budget work in an ongoing effort to <br />effectively and efficiently deliver services. There are 45 service areas in the City organization. <br />According to Dee Ann Hardt, Financial Services Director, "City staff do not perform formal <br />performance audits." "The service profiles the City has completed over the past several years <br />and the performance measures contained in those profiles are not audited". Of the five elements <br />listed in the Yellow Book for a performance audit according to GAGAS, the profiles/measures <br />represent only the first of five elements, "Criteria," in a formal performance audit. <br />Refer to the information in Appendix O regarding the performance audit work being done by the <br />City of Eugene and Appendix P, which summarizes all of the audit type work currently being <br />undertaken in the City. <br />FINAL REPORT OF THE CITIZEN CHARTER REVIEW COMMITTEE - JANUARY 14, 2002 Page 19 <br />November 20 2017, Work Session - Item A <br />
