Authority

The Board of Supervisors established the Internal Audit Office in FY 1982 as an independent appraisal function to examine and evaluate County activities as a service to the County Executive and all levels of management. In this capacity, the Internal Audit Office conducts financial, operational, information systems, and performance audits. In addition, auditors provide consulting services, conduct special investigations, and respond to management requests. To this end, internal auditing furnishes management with analyses, appraisals, recommendations, counsel, and information concerning the activities reviewed.
