Starr County approves engagement letter with Adrian Webb for countywide audit, pending fee approval

At a special Starr County Commissioners Court meeting Monday in January, commissioners approved an engagement letter with Adrian Webb to provide countywide certified public accounting services, with final approval contingent on the negotiated fee schedule.

County officials said the engagement covers the countywide audit; additional audits for other entities will follow. Commissioners discussed whether fees were uniform across those engagements and amended the motion so final approval would be conditional on fee approval.

A motion to approve the engagement letter, amended to be “pending approval of fees,” was moved and seconded and the court voted to carry the motion. The transcript records the action as approved; the specific fee amounts and the name of the motion mover and seconder were not specified in the record.

Officials said remaining audit items for other entities will be presented at a later session; no further details or fee figures were given during the meeting.
