Compliance Audit Services

We perform compliance audits to ensure that businesses operate in accordance with local laws as defined by each city’s municipal code.

Our audits are designed to promote accountability, protect public interests, and support
municipalities in enforcing regulatory standards.

A Transient Occupancy Tax (TOT) Audit is an example of a compliance fee audit that we conduct. This audit is conducted to detect any errors that have occurred from mathematical errors, underreporting of occupancies and invalid exemptions claimed by lodging establishments.

Another example of a common compliance audit is a Business License Fee Compliance Audit. This audit is conducted to determine whether a business has remitted the proper amount of business fees and whether or not the business is operating in compliance with the provisions of the city/county municipal code.

For both of these compliance audits, we also conduct investigative services to determine that all businesses that should be paying TOT’s and business license fees are paying them.

In addition, we also review existing ordinances and provide recommendations on changing verbiage to maintain compliance with the city/county ordinances within their existing municipal code.

Compliance audits are recommended every 3 to 5 years, or as specified by your city’s ordinance. This periodic review allows municipalities to maintain oversight, address potential issues proactively, and foster ongoing collaboration with the business community
