Numbered Letters Public Comment - 2023

To ensure our guidance is relevant, updated with new requirements, and easy to follow, the Local Audit and Finance Division will update our Numbered Letters and Michigan Committee on Governmental Accounting and Auditing (MCGAA) Statements over the next several years. Old documents will be removed, and the remaining documents will be placed into a consistent format. Our goal is to review approximately 20% of the letters and statements each year until they are finished being updated.

The MCGAA committee has assisted in reviewing the documents. For more manageable review, we have provided the original version and a clean draft of the new version. In addition, in the table below, we have noted whether there are significant changes or not.

The public comment period will end on January 12, 2024. Please e-mail, lafd_audits@michigan.gov for any comments or questions. After reviewing public comments, the final version will be placed on our website. To view this page or to see other numbered letters visit https://www.michigan.gov/treasury/local/lafd/letters.
