The Amarillo City Council work session on November 10, 2026, reviewed responses to an RFQ for an independent financial and project-accounting review. The audit committee recommended Weaver & Tidwell as the single firm best suited to the work, following review of 13 responses and interviews with three firms. Weaver partner Travis Kasner described a four-to-five-person team and an estimated fee of up to $318,000. The proposed engagement is expected to take about 120 days and examine capital improvement program projects, including tracing project funding to its origins; reconciling sewer and water enterprise balances; and reconciling ARPA funds. The review may also examine supporting procurement records, such as vendor selection, bids, change orders, and potential conflicts of interest.

Council discussed deliverables, data access, communication through the audit committee, and how any findings outside the agreed scope would be brought back for council direction. No contract was awarded and no formal vote was taken at this work session; the city manager said staff would prepare the scope and contract for possible award on the November 17 agenda. The council’s direction was to proceed with Weaver & Tidwell and the discussed scope, with a fee ceiling of $318,000; any expansion requiring additional authorization would return to council.
