Flathead County commissioners on May 9 approved a document assigning the county’s auditing-services engagement from Denning and Downey and Associates PC to Nexus CPA Group PLLC.

Amy Dexter of the finance department told the board that Bob Denning is retiring June 30 and that Jonathan will take over the company with a name change, prompting the contract assignment and client-consent form. Commissioners moved to sign the assignment agreement; the motion carried by voice vote with no recorded opposition.

The transcript does not include the assignment text, whether Nexus CPA Group will assume existing contract terms or if there are any fee changes; finance presented the change as administrative following the retiring partner’s departure.
