- What is the responsibility of the Sonoma County Auditor-Controller's
Audit Division?
Government Code 26909 gives the Auditor-Controller
the power to audit various entities within the County. The Audit
Division of the Sonoma County Auditor-Controller's office is responsible
for the audit function of the County of Sonoma. State statutes or
Federal law mandates many audits. The Audit Division conducts audits
of County Departments, County Enterprise Funds, County Service Areas,
Special Districts under the Board of Supervisors, Special Districts
under Local Boards, and Federal, State and County Grants. The Division
also does audits and compliance reviews of Refuse and Cable Franchise
Fees, Advertising Funds, Transient Occupancy Tax and Self-Storage
operators. The Audit Division investigates fraud or cash shortages
found within County Departments and makes recommendations to prevent
their recurrence. Per Board Resolution, all audits done by the Division
are either revenue producing or mandated by law. The Division is
comprised of an Audit Manager and nine Auditor/Accountants.
