The current reviewed Audit Financial Statements as of June 30, 2014 were presented to the directors. The directors concurred that Agreed Upon Procedures are a more effective indicator of compliance with election laws and PAC funding laws than an audit or review. The issue was tabled until the July meeting to allow for addition information on proposed procedures that are consistent for PAC reporting and the estimated costs to perform them. Other Business PAC Directors approved $3,000 for the Florida Leadership Committee. Next Meeting It was discussed that the next Florida CPA/PAC Director meeting will be held on July 7, 2015 in Tampa in conjunction with Committee Days. Adjournment There being no further business, the meeting was adjourned. Jacob “Cecil” Shumacker III, Chair Deborah L. Curry, Secretary-Treasurer .
