a. Maudlin & Jenkins (M&J) - City of Marco Island's Auditing Service
Mr. Daniel Anderson, M&J Audit Manager, advised the Committee that planning
procedures for the Fiscal Year 2019 Audit have begun. Updates on internal control
process changes and City personnel assignments will be helpful so that M&J will have an
accurate understanding of whose signatures to expect on financial documents. This will
be done to assess the risks for Fiscal Year 2019 and to develop an effective audit plan
for the City .
Mr. Anderson further indicated that Maudlin & Jenkins has a new cloud based software

named 'Surelink' available to assist. However, it is recognized that the City's current
software (Munis) has provided M&J good access to all the information the Auditors have
needed in the past. Mr. Anderson will forward a link demonstrating the new software to the
Audit Advisory Committee for its evaluation and review. Finance Director Polanco will
make a determination after review and comment from the Committee.
Mr. Anderson highlighted the new Government Accounting Standards Board (GASB)
statements, which will be reviewed more in depth by Finance Director Polanco. M&J
offered to provide links to a webinar to anyone on the Committee interested in learning
about the changes.
The Maudlin & Jenkins Audit Engagement Team & Timetable:
Mr. Wade Sansbury, M&J's Engagement Partner, Mr. Daniel Anderson, M&J's
Engagement Manager, and the same M&J team members who participated in last year's
audit will be on hand to assist in this year's effort. The Maudlin & Jenkins team will
provide the required list of items to City Finance Director Polanco within a week, and
members of the team will be on hand for two weeks in January to conduct year-end field
work. It is expected that the Fire and Police Actuarial Reports will be complete by the end
