Provides that the audit report shall also include the professional opinion of an auditor (rather than an accountant) with respect to the financial status and operations or, if an opinion cannot be expressed, a declaration that the auditor (rather than an accountant) is unable to express an opinion and an explanation of the reasons he or she cannot do so. Provides that each audit report shall include the certification of the auditor (rather than an accountant) making the audit that the audit has been performed in compliance with generally accepted auditing standards. Provides that each audit report filed with the Comptroller shall be accompanied by a copy of each official statement or other offering of materials prepared in connection with the issuance of indebtedness of the county since the filing of the last audit report. Provides that audit reports shall contain financial statements prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles and audited in conformity with generally accepted auditing standards if the last audit report filed preceding fiscal year 2017 expressed an unmodified or modified opinion by the independent auditor that the financial statements were presented in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. Provides that audit reports containing financial statements prepared in conformity with an other comprehensive basis of accounting may follow specified best practices and guidelines and shall be audited in conformity with generally accepted auditing standards. Provides that if an audit report is submitted containing financial statements prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles, thereafter all future audit reports shall also contain financial statements presented in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

Provides that the appointed supervisor may be a trustee appointed by a majority vote of the trustees and shall have one vote on any matter properly before the board. In townships in a county with a population under 250,000, provides for the appointment of a temporary deputy to perform the ministerial functions of a vacant township or multi-township office, including a vacancy due to the physical incapacity of a township officer until the physically incapacitated township officer submits a written statement that he or she is physically able to perform his or her duties. Provides that the temporary deputy shall not be permitted to vote at a township board meeting unless the appointed deputy is a trustee of the board at the time of the board. Provides that if the appointed deputy is a trustee appointed as a temporary deputy, his or her trustee compensation shall be suspended until he or she concludes his or her appointment as an appointed deputy upon the permanent appointment to fill the vacancy. Exempts the temporary deputy from the requirement to fill a vacant township office with a member of the same political party. Effective immediately.
