Dear Lary:
January 14, 2010
It is my pleasure to provide the City of Port Orchard with professional services. This
engagement letter embodies the entire agreement regarding services to be rendered by
my firm to your organization. This will confirm our understanding of the terms and
objectives of our engagement and the nature and limitation of the services I will provide.
Services will be performed in accordance with the Professional Standards promulgated by
the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants.
Services to be provided consist of the following:
1. I will provide you with technical assistance as you prepare the 2009 financial
statements. I will be available on an "on-call" basis to answer staff questions as they
prepare the 2009 financial statements.
2. Once the city staff has completed the financial statements, I will read the financial
statements and complete a financial statement checklist on the 2009 financial
statements. This will be completed no later than May 15, 2010.
The performance of "other accounting services" is deemed to be "non attest services" in
professional standards.
I will not compile, audit or review the City's financial statements. I am not an insurer or
guarantor of the accuracy of the financial statements, which are your representations.
This engagement does not include any procedures designed to discover errors,
misrepresentations, fraud, illegal acts, or theft and you agree that I have no
responsibility to do so. However, I will inform the appropriate level of management of
any material errors that come to my attention and any fraud or illegal acts that come to
my attention, unless they are clearly inconsequential.

maintain my independence In the performance of these services.
You may request that I perform additional services not contemplated by this engagement
letter. If this occurs, I will communicate with you regarding the scope and estimated
cost of these additional services. Engagements for additional services may necessitate
that I issue a separate engagement letter to reflect the obligations of both parties. In
the absence of any other written communications from me documenting such additional
services, my services will be governed by the terms of this engagement letter.
My fees, which will be billed as work progresses, are based on the time required plus out-
of-pocket expenses. My billing rate is $107/per hour. My estimate of services is 10
hours, not to exceed $1,070.
I appreciate the opportunity to be of service to you. Please sign and return a copy of this
