Burlington Electric FY2026 KPMG Audit

At a glance

Based on auto-generated captions; names and details may be misheard.

  • What: annual independent audit of Burlington Electric Department's financial statements, performed by KPMG.
  • Where it stands: on 2026-10-14 the commission voted 4-0 to accept the report of audit results and authorize issuing the final statements once outstanding items are done. No uncorrected misstatements or fraud identified so far.
  • Next: open items are the legal letter updates, management representation letter, the city's finalized annual report and a few questions; audited financials expected in November, with any material change reported back to the commission first.

Key points

  • Report includes the usual emphasis-of-matter paragraph (statements cover the department only, not the whole city); opinion not modified.
  • Two new standards adopted in FY26: GASB 103 and GASB 104.
  • Key estimates: fair value of investments and the net pension liability; no indicators of management bias.
  • A closed session on a public-employee evaluation took place the same evening; it is separate and not recorded.
