Finance follies

MORE fictitious numbers. When are we going to get REAL numbers that reflect REALITY from the Finance Dept.? Are they massaging the numbers up or down to suit the City Manager? Most of the Departments under him are in a state of CHAOS. When will we get a forensic audit to restore some confidence in City operations? All we have are guesstimates, possible averages of possibly maybe close-to-accurate figures, multiple errors, or outright fiction. Who knows which set of numbers are accurate? When, if ever, are we going to get the real numbers? Falsifying numbers is criminal fraud; multiple errors is incompetence- neither should be tolerated by the residents.
