As a <br />result of these findings, the County took action and hired a Senior Internal <br />Auditor to begin the process of periodically providing audit reviews of <br />Human Services and all other county departments.

The next step for the County is to establish an Audit <br />Charter and Committee to assist in the control of operations and in <br />reaching a conclusion concerning the overall control over assets and the <br />effectiveness of the system of internal controls of the County. <br />REQUESTED ACTION: <br />Motion to approve the establishment of the Cabarrus County Audit <br />Charter. <br />EXPECTED LENGTH OF PRESENTATION: <br />SUBMITTED BY: <br />Paul Ferguson, Senior Internal Auditor <br />Pamela S.
