El Dorado County Board of Supervisors Response to the

Budget oversight is minimal. The only oversight is review of the Semiannual Actual Cost reports received by the office of the CAO. The Board of Supervisors agrees with the finding, as it relates to oversight of the JPA budget by the County. This is by design, as the JPA is a separate government agency with its own governing body. As such, it is the JPA Board of Directors, not the County, who is charged with JPA budget oversight. The County does ensure that annual audits of the JPA are conducted, in accordance with the agreement between the County and the JPA.
