The Town of Paonia, Colorado (Town) is soliciting proposals from qualified public accounting firms (Consultant) interested in providing auditing services for the Town for fiscal year (FY) 2022 with the option of auditing its financial statements for each of the four subsequent years thereafter.

Either party shall have the right to terminate the agreement for default. The audits are to be performed in accordance with generally accepted governmental accounting principles as set forth by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board, and the Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in the United States of America.
The Town will not be bound or responsible for any explanations or interpretations other than those given in writing as set forth in this Request for Proposal (RFP). No oral interpretations will be made by the Town to any firm as to the requirements of this RFP.
