SECTION 19. INDEPENDENT AUDIT.
   The Council shall authorize by ordinance a contract for an independent annual examination of all City accounts and may so provide for such examination more frequently if Council deems necessary. Such a contract shall be entered into with only a certified public accountant or a firm of certified public accountants who have no personal interest, direct or indirect, in the fiscal affairs of the City, or any of its officers. If such an examination is made because such examination is required by the Auditor of State, the Council may accept it as satisfying the requirements of this section. The report of any such examination, including the comprehensive annual financial report, made to the City shall be filed with the Clerk of Council, who shall retain the then current report for public inspection. Within thirty days after the report is filed with the Clerk of Council, the Director of Finance shall submit a copy of the same report to the Rocky River Public Library.
