What the response says and how it was assessed

Response says

Mariposa County Board of Supervisors: Disagrees; says contributions followed the budget but balance-sheet accounting made the lower FY24 opening balance unexpected.

Audit analysis

The response explains the disputed accounting characterization, but only partly addresses the asserted need for emergency redistribution. Fiscal years and account treatment provide a checkable basis.
