numbers dont figure

I personally cant wait until the high school kids return to school for their junior years. I believe we have needed an audit for YEARS, going back to the Country Club project or prior to that. while we are at it we should do a forensic audit of the bathrooms, Santana, and the Rec Center. DOZENS of mistakes on official documents? Nobody has a clue. We need an audit to clear the deck and restore confidence in the City and the officials running it. TWO years later you might think they would KNOW what the real numbers were, but they dont, and some of the discrepancies involved HUNDREDS of thousands of dollars! Could there be TWO sets of books? Take an average? WHAT? We need accurate numbers, not guestimates. What auditor okayed the books those years? Who signed off on those numbers? Why didnt THEY notice these discrepancies? Are they licensed? Is this basic incompetency again, or something worse? Are the people signing off for THOSE records the same ones STILL signing off for our records? Why would we trust their numbers any more NOW, than before? Something stinks here and an audit by a reputable and capable firm is the ONLY way to clear the air.

FOIA and discrepancies

A partial FOIA request was received after only a couple weeks. The rest will take a LONG time and cost a Lot of money, Gorland indicated. A cursory inspection revealed so many errors that the numbers on the pages are rendered unintelligible. One example, the revenue from the water polo team and acquatics for 2005-06 is listed as 1250 bucks on one page, and 100 bucks on another page. Which number is an accurate account of the revenue taken in? Swimming pool admissions for 05-06 are listed as 39000 on one page and 52,899 on another page. There are AT LEAST a dozen other incongruencies that are revealed in a brief inspection of the proferred numbers. Revenues received from VG for fireworks oin 05-06 is listed as 6426 on one page and 4000 on another page. WHICH was it? Pelican Theater revenues are listed in 05-06 as being 2520 on one page and 2000 on another page. Which WAS it? Franchise fees for 05-06 are listed as 795,000 on one page and 966,572 on another page, a 175k discrepancy. Whose on first? TWO YEARS later and we dont know how much we collected in franchise fees? the 1 2 cent sales tax for 05-06 is listed at 841,464 on one page and as 925,018 on another page, a difference of 85k ! 2005-06 Clerk of Court revenue from fines was 130,181 OR 165,762? WHICH, if any, is accurate? YEARS later we still dont know exactly how much money we collected? Incredible!
