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!
