body
BACKGROUND
CCC provides rehabilitation and flood prevention for the watershed of Napa County. They have been providing services to the District for several years. District staff reached out to CCC regarding any unpaid or outstanding invoices for services from July 1, 2024 through June 30, 2025, in July 2025, CCC confirmed that there were no outstanding invoices for fiscal year 2024-25. In January 2026, CCC was audited and it was found that several invoices were never sent to vendors, the Flood District being one. The attached invoice is dated January 22, 2026, six months after the close of fiscal year 2024-25. Although this expense was not budgeted in fiscal year 2025-26 the Watershed subdivision will be able to absorb the expense using its Services & Supplies appropriation. Staff have requested that CCC send all invoices to District administration staff in a timely manner.
Requested Actions:
1. Approve and authorize payment to CCC for outstanding invoice from fiscal year 2024-2025
