Municipal Auditing
Municipal Auditing objectively evaluates the organization's system of internal controls and advises City employees, management, and Council on ways to improve controls.
|
The primary function of the Municipal Auditing department is to examine and audit all accounts, books and records of the City that reflect transactions involving financial activities of the City, including those for which the city has a responsibility as an agent, custodian or trustee. The charter also specifically requires the department to immediately report any unauthorized, illegal, or irregular acts or practices discovered affecting or involving public funds or the financial affairs of the City.
The Municipal Auditing department performs financial related and performance audits for the City of Roanoke and its Public School System. See below for a more detailed description of these types of audits. | |

Financial related audits include determining whether: (1) financial information is presented in accordance with established or stated criteria, (2) the organization has adhered to specific financial compliance requirements, and (3) the organization's internal control structure over financial reporting and safeguarding assets is suitably designed and implemented to achieve control objectives.
Performance audits are objective and systematic evaluations of internal controls that determine: (1) whether the entity is acquiring, protecting, and using its resources (such as personnel, property, and space) economically and efficiently, (2) the extent to which desired results or benefits are being achieved, and (3) whether the entity has complied with significant laws and regulations applicable to a program.
