lost revenues

29 Dec 07 58 total patrons documented- 13 adults, 45 kids. total number charged- one adult, 15 kids. Total revenues for the day= $25. None of the patrons were designated as swim team participants. Wonder if this is another Whooops moment at the pool, where they FORGOT to charge for the additional patrons, OR a pattern of daily under-reporting revenues ? If all the revenues arent reported, the city gets cheated out of needed revenues. Worse, if all the patrons paid and the difference in what was reported and the actual use was just pocketed! Either way, the residents lose revenues due to, poor management and controls in the first place, and theft in the second case. Either, or both, should be grounds for dismissal, if not prosecution.
