At tonight's City Council meeting I will be asking for an Investigative Audit of the City of Tehachapi's financial records. There are people on the council who will undoubtedly take this personally. This is not personal. As you are aware our former City Manager has just resigned. He was in office for many years. The City of Tehachapi is a business and should be run as such. In effect the City Manager is equal to a President or Chief Executive Officer of a business. The City Council is equal to the Board of Directors of a business. Normal and PRUDENT operating procedure for a large business is to have not only Annual Audits done by an external CPA firm, but to initiate an an Investigative Audit when a high level executive leaves. An Investigative Audit will put to rest any questions the public has about the accountability of funds controlled by the City Council and the City Manager. IF the council votes this down, my first question will be WHY? IF in fact this happens, I hope you will remember this in November when two seats are up for re-election, Ed Grimes and Deborah Hand. I have spent my entire time in office pulling for the citizens and openness in their government. I hope you will support this issue by attending this evening. The meeting is at 6:00 p.m. at the Veteran's Hall, 125 East F St. |
