Share of the Ventura County Waste Commission's
Financial, Legal, and Risk Audit -f
Background
As a part of its efforts to form a regional Waste Management
Authority, the Ventura County Waste Commission is conducting an
extensive audit of all public solid waste activities and
facilities. The Commission has hired Deloitte & Touche to perform
the audit. Each jurisdiction is being asked to share in the costs
of the audit based on a formula of 50% population and 50% equal
shares. All contributions by the jurisdictions will be refunded in
full from County Integrated Waste Management Program fees.
Once formed, it is proposed that the Authority would assume known
and unknown public solid waste liabilities and assets. To assist
jurisdictions with their decisions to either join or not join the
Authority, the Commission believes they must have current
information regarding exiting and future assets and liabilities.
Deloitte & Touche was hired to perform an audit to identify and
evaluate all current and future financial assets and obligations;
contracts and commitments; and potential risks that would be
assumed by the Authority and its members. The audit will include
all solid waste activities and facilities of the Ventura Regional
Sanitation District, all regional planning activities of the
County's Solid Waste Department, and city solid waste facilities
and activities that would potentially be assumed by the Authority.
The total cost of the audit is $190, 000; Moorpark's share is
$12 , 300. Staff proposes that the City fund its contributions from
the General Fund which will be reimbursed in full. The City of
Fillmore, acting as the contract administrator, will collect each
jurisdiction's share.
The Public Works, Facilities, and Solid Waste Committee (Montgomery
& Wozniak) considered this item at its January 19 meeting and
concurs with staff's recommendation.
Recommendation (Roll Call Vote)
Staff and the Public Works, Facilities, and Solid Waste Committee
recommends that Council authorize the appropriate of $12, 300 from
the General Fund Reserves to be expended for the City's share of
