151. REGIONAL TRANSPORTATION PLAN PERFORMANCE AUDIT (PRP. 400 AND 479) RECOMMENDATIONS (Supervisorial District: 1,2 3, 4 and 5 ) Approve the Board’s concurrence with the Auditor General’s Performance Audit of the Maricopa County Regional Transportation Plan (Prop 400 and 479) and forward a letter confirming the Board’s action to the Maricopa Association of Governments (MAG) Transportation Policy Committee. The enabling statues for Propositions 400 and 479 require that beginning in 2010 and every five years thereafter, that the Arizona Auditor General hire an independent auditor with expertise in multimodal transportation systems and regional transportation planning to conduct a performance audit of the regional transportation system. The first audit was conducted in 2011. The fourth audit is now complete and available for review at www.azauditor.gov. The auditors concluded that based on the audit work performed, there were several key findings and recommendations. Per A.R.S. §28-6313 the Board of Supervisors is required to submit written recommendations to the MAG Transportation Policy Committee that the findings are agreed to or disagreed with and the recommendations should be implemented, implemented with modifications or not be implemented. None of the findings or recommendations are directed at Maricopa County or have a negative impact on the county. A proposed letter of concurrence is attached should the Board approve this request.
