Red Willow County commissioners voted to engage Donald D. Wilson, CPA, to prepare a Compliance Attestation Report after being told the county spent more than $750,000 in federal funds. Wilson presented the report requirement and a Management Representation Letter; the board authorized his engagement and signed the representation letter.

The motions to engage Wilson and to sign the Management Representation Letter passed by roll call with Randy Dean and Charles Fritsche voting yes; Commissioner Ted Gans was absent. The minutes record Wilson presenting the Compliance Attestation Report and the Management Representation Letter, but do not record the fee amount or a contract execution date.

Discussion vs. decision: The board accepted the recommendation to engage Wilson to prepare the attestation; the record shows both the engagement motion and the authorization to sign the representation letter. No further details about the scope, timeline or cost were recorded in the minutes.
