AGENDA ITEM
DATE: May 3, 2023
TO: Mayor and City Council
FROM: Ann Eifert, Director of Financial Services
SUBJECT: AGREEMENT WITH DAVIS FARR, LLP, FOR PROFESSIONAL
AUDITING SERVICES
Recommended Actions:
1. Approve a three-year agreement with Davis Farr, LLP, for professional auditing services; and
2. Authorize the City Manager to execute a three-year professional services agreement with Davis Farr, LLP, in the amount not-to-exceed $129,000.
Fiscal Impact:
The total cost of the agreement is not-to-exceed $129,000 for three years and is included in the City’s annual adopted budget. The total agreement amount includes costs for the City’s annual audit, Agreed Upon Procedures (AUP) on the City Treasurer’s Report, AUP on the GANN Limit Report, Single Audit for the receipt of federal funds (if applicable), State Controller Report, City Street Report, and other auditing and accounting services as required.
Background:
The City has contracted with Rogers, Anderson, Malody & Scott, LLP, for professional auditing services since 2016. In accordance with the City’s Purchasing Policy, Staff initiated a Request for Proposals (RFP) for professional auditing services in February of 2023. The specifications required that the audits be performed in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and the standards for financial audits set forth in Governmental Auditing Standards issued by the Comptroller General of the United States, the provisions of the Federal Single Audit Act as amended in 1996, and, provisions of the U.S. Office of Management and Budget Uniform Guidance, Audits of States, Local Governments, and Non-Profit Organizations.
32
Discussion:
In response to the City’s RFP, the City received two proposals from Davis Farr, LLP, and the City’s current audit firm Rogers, Anderson, Malody & Scott, LLP. The firms were then rated by an evaluation team consisting of three City staff members. The proposals were individually reviewed and evaluated based on the following:
Professional qualifications of the firm
Professional qualifications and experience of members of the engagement team Capability of handling all aspects of the engagement and providing ongoing support and technical assistance throughout the year
Audit Approach
Experience with comparable government engagements
Reasonableness and competitiveness of the fee schedule After a thorough review and evaluation of the proposals, Davis Farr, LLP, was selected as the best firm suited to meet the City’s current and future needs. Davis Farr, LLP, has over 30 years of experience working with public sector agencies, including the audits of other local cities such as Mission Viejo, Rancho Santa Margarita, Fountain Valley, Garden Grove, and Huntington Beach. The rotation of audit firms will also ensure a “fresh look” of the City’s internal controls as well as the examination of the City’s financial statements.

Work Plan
Davis Farr plans and conducts our engagements in the most efficient manner possible, and our audit approach is unique with regard to the following:
Our firm is sensitive to the priorities and work requirements of our clients. We work around the schedules of our clients when scheduling segments of the audit or requesting documentation in order to minimize disruption of
City
staff and to complete the audit in a timely manner.
Whenever possible, we use accounting support already prepared by the City
staff
to
avoid duplication or
unnecessary requests for audit supporting schedules.
Our firm’s expertise
is in
governmental
auditing. Our auditors are GASB experts and skilled at addressing audit issues that are specific to
local governments. You will not spend ti
me training our personnel.
When formulating internal control recommendations, we obtain a thorough understanding of the specific circumstances at your
City
to
provide a tailored, practical recommendation.
Throughout the year we are a resource to our client
s in providing accounting advice, researching technical questions, dealing with tax problems, and helping with other problems as they arise.
Our clients can also
attend our annual GASB Update free of charge.
Audit Software
-
We
utilize
CaseWare
audit software for the electronic
City
of workpapers. We have the ability to
accept audit documentation in either hard copy or electronic format.
CaseWare
allows us the ability to import trial
balances that can be provided in either excel or a text docu ment. Some of the benefits of using
CaseWare
trial
balance software are as follows:
We create our own lead sheets (i.e., analytical review comparison schedules). This limits the amount of time finance staff spends creating audit schedules.
Our software a
utomatically generates analytical review
reports by account number for ease of analyzing significant fluctuations between fiscal years.
We can link the financial statement schedules directly to the CaseWare
trial balances. As a result, we can
provide
th
e
City
with financial statements almost immediately after receiving the trial balance from the
City
. Additionally, journal entries are easy to post to the financial statement schedules and the risk of data entry error is minimized
.
We can provide
the
City
with reports showing the coding of the financial statement schedules for ease of review by
City
staff. These reports show each account coded to a specific financial statement line item as well as journal entries that are posted during the audit.
Data Min
ing Software
-
We have a dedicated team of personnel trained to use special
data mining software, IDEA.
Our software uses source data from your accounting system to search for anomalies , such as
duplicate or voided
checks, cross
-
referencing vendor address
es
with employee addresses, detecting accounting transactions recorded on the weekend, reviewing journal entry postings for unauthorized individuals. The IDEA software identifies specific transactions for the auditors to review for potential fraud or erro r.
Internal Control Evaluation
-
Our approach to evaluating internal controls involves observation and inquiry. We spend time with the personnel responsible for the accounting cycles to gain an understanding of the processes. We also carefully
evaluate your policies and procedures. After our initial evaluation, we identify key controls in your processes and design test to evaluate the effectiveness of those processes. In the initial year of the audit, we will focus on the following accounting
cycles
for each department with decentralized accounting activities :
Billing and cash receipting
Capital assets
Purchase and disbursements
Payroll
Investment and cash controls
Information systems
61 7
City of
Aliso Viejo
|
Proposal for Professional Auditing
Services
In future years, we will review the accounting cycles noted above but also look at other processes such as credit card transactions, petty cash, inventory controls, offsite cash receipting, employee reimbursements, contract compliance, and other areas. Ou
r goal is to modify our audit approach every year to further evaluate your internal controls.
Audit Stage
Procedures Performed
Planning
and inquiry
During the planning phase of the audit, we plan to

have regarding the finance
s of the

Audit Stage
Procedures Performed
We will incorporate an element of unpredictability every year that will focus on an audit area that is not typically considered a high or significant risk area such as petty cash, credit card purchases, new vendors, travel expenses, etc.
The aforementione
d tests are only a few of the tests performed during the examination and by no means is it meant to be all inclusive. During the final stage of the audit,
we will meet with Finance
staff to review our audit findings and any adjusting journal entries.
Sin
gle Audit
Approach
As part of our Single Audit for the years in which the City expends granter than $750,000, we will perform the following procedures in accordance with the Uniform Guidance:
Perform an evaluation of the major programs required to be tested
Review OMB guidance and the OMB Compliance Supplement for the grant program audited.
Review internal controls for each of the applicable 14 compliance areas for each program audited.
Using
AICPA sampling guidance, we will select a sample for each of the applicable 14 compliance areas for each program audited. We will test the sample for compliance with those 14 areas.
Test the indirect cost rate, if applicable
Review monitoring reports for
noncompliance and follow up on the resolution of past
noncompliance, if applicable.
Issue a single audit report of federal expenditures.
File the data collection form within the specified deadline.
Completion
of the Audit
and
Preparation
of Financial
Stat
ements
The nature and extent of the work required is dependent on our assessment of the likelihood of misstatements in the financial statements together with our conclusions from the planning and testing stages of the audit. All of the audit information is
then used to reach a conclusion on whether
the financial statements taken as a whole conform with generally accepted accounting principles.
We will review significant events after year end

AGENDA ITEM
DATE: May 3, 2023
TO: Mayor and City Council
FROM: David A. Doyle, City Manager
SUBJECT: FOURTH AMENDMENT TO AGREEMENT WITH BEST BEST & KRIEGER
FOR CITY ATTORNEY SERVICES
Recommended Actions:
1. Approve the Fourth Amendment to Agreement with Best Best & Krieger for City Attorney services; and
2. Authorize the City Manager to execute the Fourth Amendment to Agreement with Best Best & Krieger.
Fiscal Impact:
The cost for City Attorney services with Best Best & Krieger is budgeted annually and may be adjusted depending on the City’s needs. The current fiscal year budget is approximately $565,000 and is estimated to be $487,550 for Fiscal Year 2023-24.
Background:
In 2012, the City conducted a Request for Proposal process relating to City Attorney services. Eight proposals were submitted by law firms interested in providing City Attorney services for the City. On June 6, 2012, the Council selected Best Best & Krieger as the preferred law firm.
Discussion:
The original Agreement between Best Best & Krieger and the City had a five-year term which expired on June 30, 2017. Pursuant to Section 3.1.2 of the Agreement, the Agreement may be extended for up to three additional two-year terms upon mutual written agreement of the parties. In June 2017, the parties exercised the first renewal option to enter into a First Amendment to extend the term of the Agreement for the period encompassing July 1, 2017 to June 30, 2019. In April 2019, the parties exercised the second renewal option to enter into a Second Amendment to extend the term of the Agreement through June 30, 2021. On June 2, 2021 the parties exercised the third and 72
final renewal option to enter into a Third Amendment to extend the term of the Agreement through June 30, 2023.
In line with virtually every agreement of its kind in Orange County, the proposed Fourth Amendment eliminates the fixed term included in the prior engagement with the understanding that the Agreement is still terminable at-will any time. This will also eliminate the need for repeated renewals which can be disruptive and labor-intensive.
The proposed Fourth Amendment also modifies the evaluation process prescribed in the prior engagement to allow each City Council to determine which materials, if any, should be provided in connection with the annual City Attorney evaluations.
The City Attorney’s Office provides general legal services as well as specialized legal counsel in the areas of NPDES, General Plan, Zoning Code, codification, and litigation.
The Council conducts an annual performance evaluation of the City Attorney and has approved continuing to contract with Best Best & Krieger every year. Staff has been very pleased with the knowledge, professionalism and service provided by Best Best & Krieger. Moreover, Best Best & Krieger’s experience with the City and institutional knowledge have proven to be a valuable resource.
Staff recommends that the Council approve the Fourth Amendment which modifies the terms of the Agreement to eliminate the fixed term and amend provisions related to the City Attorney performance evaluation process.

FROM: Scott C. Smith, City Attorney
Mitzi Ortiz, City Clerk
SUBJECT: THIRD PUBLIC HEARING TO CONSIDER COMPOSITION OF
DISTRICTS FOR BY-DISTRICT ELECTIONS
Recommended Action:
Conduct third public hearing, receive and consider input from the public, provide further direction to staff.
Fiscal Impact:
The cost of the transition to districts is estimated to be $70,000.
If the City decides not to move forward with the transition to by-district elections and a CVRA lawsuit is filed against the City, the financial impact could be exponentially greater.
Background:
The City of Aliso Viejo currently elects its five-member City Council through an “at-large” election system in which each Councilmember may reside anywhere in the City, and each member is elected by voters Citywide to provide Citywide representation. This is in contrast to a “by-district” election system where the City is divided into geographical districts, each Council candidate must reside in the district they will represent, and only voters within a given district vote for that district’s Councilmember.
On January 31, 2023, the City received a letter from Kevin Shenkman of Shenkman & Hughes on behalf of the Southwest Voter Registration Education Project and its Aliso Viejo members. The letter claims the City’s at-large voting system dilutes the ability of Latino voters to elect candidates of their choice or to otherwise influence the outcome of City elections. As a result, Mr. Shenkman claims, the City’s at-large elections violate the California Voting Rights Act (“CVRA”). This letter must be sent as a prerequisite to any lawsuit claiming CVRA violations.
78
In response to Mr. Shenkman’s claim, the City Council adopted a Resolution of Intention to transition to by-district elections at its meeting of March 15, 2023. The City Council held the first of four required public hearings on April 5, 2023 , and the second on April 19, 2023.
Discussion:
Before adopting district-based elections, the City must first prepare a draft map or maps.
The City’s map drawing process began following the initial two public hearings. The City Council defined the criteria used to create one or more proposed district maps, and staff will present the draft map or maps for public comment and review in two subsequent public hearings. The final third and fourth public hearings must be held within 45 days of each other.
The public was provided with an opportunity to submit maps as well, prior to an April 20, 2023 deadline . The proposed maps must be provided for the public’s review at least seven days prior to the third and fourth public hearings . As such, the draft maps for Council’s consideration at tonight’s hearing were posted on the City’s websiteon April 26, 2023, in accordance with state law.
Draft Maps
The City’s demographic consultant, the Center for Demographic Research, prepared two maps for the Council’s consideration, and three maps were received from members of the public. Each of the draft maps was analyzed and reviewed by the Center for Demographic Research and found to be vi able. This means the maps create potential Council districts that are population -balanced within a margin +/ - 10%, are contiguous, compact, and respect communities of interest. A summary of the population deviation may be found below:
Images of the proposed maps, with accompanying demographic analysis and population breakdown, is attached to this report (Attachment 2).
During tonight’s hearing, and the fourth public hearing on May 17, 2023, the Council will also need to determine the “sequencing” of the elections. This means that the Council will 79
need to decide which districts will have elections on which dates. Council may consider the terms of the existing Council members when selecting the sequencing of the district elections.
All hearings will be held in the City Hall – Council Chamber, 12 Journey, Suite 150, Aliso Viejo, California.
To increase public awareness of the transition to district elections, the City will use a variety of public communication channels to engage members of the community.
Districting information will continue to be featured on the City’s website at the following web address: https://avcity.org/districting. In addition, the City’s website will be populated with information about how the public can participate and also provide answers to frequently asked district questions.
The next public hearing for the Council to receive and consider input from the public concerning the composition of voting districts, and review the final proposed map(s), is scheduled for May 17, 2023. The public is also encouraged to provide input via email to [email protected], to drop it off at City Hall, or mail it to the City Clerk.

Districting Criteria
The districts shall be nearly equal in population
Consideration may be given to the following factors:
• Contiguity
• Communities of interest
• Neighborhoods, special districts, school districts, utility providers • Special zones or district sub-areas (entertainment zone, downtown, college, historic)
• Areas with similar or common interests, issues or socio-economic characteristics (legislative, education, housing)
• Easy to identify
• Natural or built features: freeways, major roads, rivers, hills, mountains.
• Compactness of territory
686
7 Additional Legal Requirements
• Federal Voting Rights Act of 1965
• Maps must comply with Section 2 of the federal Voting Rights Act, which prohibits voting practices that result in a denial or abridgement of the right of any citizen of the United States to vote on account of race or color. • A violation of Section 2 is established if, “…based on the totality of circumstances,” the challenged electoral process is “…not equally open to participation by members of a [racial minority group] in that its members have less opportunity than other members of the electorate to participate in the political process and to elect representatives of their choice.” • Fourteenth Amendment restricts use of race as the
“predominant” criterion
