  • Ski Industry Leases Of
    Vermont State Auditor Douglas R. Hoffer Report to the Vermont Legislature and the Agency of Natural Resources State Land Leases Boost Ski Industry, but Are Dated and Inconsistent 1/20/2015 • Office of the Vermont State Auditor • Non-Audit Report 15-01 Mission Statement The mission of the Vermont State Auditor’s Office is to hold government accountable. This means ensuring taxpayer funds are used effectively and efficiently, and that we foster the prevention of waste, fraud, and abuse. Principal Investigator Andrew C. Stein Non-Audit Inquiry This is a non-audit report. A non-audit report is a tool used to inform citizens and management of issues that may need attention. It is not an audit and is not conducted under generally accepted government auditing standards. A non-audit report has a substantially smaller scope of work than an audit. Therefore, its conclusions are more limited, and it does not contain recommendations. Instead, the report includes information and possible risk-mitigation strategies relevant to the entity that is the object of the inquiry. DOUGLAS R. HOFFER STATE AUDITOR STATE OF VERMONT OFFICE OF THE STATE AUDITOR January 20, 2015 The Honorable Shap Smith Speaker of the House of Representatives The Honorable John Campbell President Pro Tempore of the Senate The Honorable Peter Shumlin Governor Deb Markowitz Secretary of Natural Resources Dear Colleagues, More than 70 years ago, the State decided to catalyze a new industry by leasing public land to companies willing to invest in the infrastructure necessary for downhill skiing. By most measures, this partnership has been successful, and our iconic mountains are now home to world- famous ski areas.
