King County congratulated by state for continuously improving audits

In a letter to King County Executive Ron Sims, (68K .jpg) Washington State Auditor Brian Sonntag congratulated King County for its proactive approach to continuously improving audits. Despite King County’s size and complexity, the number of audit findings it received fell from 13 in 1997 to just four for the recently concluded 2002 audit.

“I am pleased that the auditor recognizes our ongoing efforts to improve audits,” said Executive Sims. “We are already discussing how we can address the issues reported in the 2002 audit.”
