What the response says and how it was assessed

Response says

The county wholly disagrees, citing professional staff judgment and suggesting that faster imperfect repairs may be preferable to additional consultant design work.

Audit analysis

Whole disagreement and concrete reasoning about staff assessment and repair-versus-design tradeoffs are explicit. The response does not fully address the finding’s concern about comprehensive ongoing documentation. Its assertions are not linked to a particular record.
