Chancellor Interpretation

I interpret this policy to mean that the MCCCD will be operated with an adequate system of internal controls, both accounting and administrative, that are sufficient to meet Generally Accepted Accounting Principles and auditing standards. Compliance will be met when:

  • An organizational governance structure is implemented that allows for independent assessment & reporting to the Chancellor or the Board as appropriate. This includes mechanisms to identify when conditions exist and processes for the institution to respond appropriately.
  • Investment or reinvestment of moneys received by the District will occur in a manner allowed under the laws of the State of Arizona.
  • The District's public image and credibility are not endangered.
