I guess the first question I have is, what has the remaining staff been doing after they lost leadership?
Besides the fact they were collecting a pay check for doing nothing for 9 months, one of the audit committee members expressed dismay in this revelation. I think his words were, “That’s not a good thing.” Especially with the change of power at city hall, not having an internal control like that doesn’t bode well for the taxpayer.
I was glad to hear they are back on track, but this should have never happened.
It’s called “Mayberry Auditing.” The State has been doing it for years.
