Auditor, Internal ADM 10 ------------ -------- -------- Currently the District contracts with an outside Auditor; however, this new position would provide the District with internal oversight on spending to allow the District to be good stewards of the money it receives. Even though the District does not yet meet the statute threshold of $500 million to be a position required in statute, the District is very close to receiving that threshold amount.
This position will provide leadership, assistance and guidance to departments in the tracking of their spending to ensure that every dollar the District receives is spent and falls within the budget constraints assigned for that program area. This position would be placed in the Administrative Unit at a Pay Grade of 10.
The estimated cost for one new hire would be $94,723.65 for salary and benefits.
However, if a current employee is chosen to fill the position, the estimated cost may be significantly lower.
