Before you can give any information related to the company that will be used, don’t you have to get the clearance to have an independent audit first?<br /><br />We are long over due and many towns and cities require independent audits yearly from outside firms with requirements stating that a change must be made after so many years to keep the audits honest.DWnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4132515532832473082.post-74186355740464318212010-06-04T12:38:12.793-07:002010-06-04T12:38:12.793-07:00Just curious, at who's expense is this "o...Just curious, at who's expense is this "outside" independent audit? <br /><br />And since Foster wants to be a transparent Mayor, who is this licensed independent audit firm that he will be using?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4132515532832473082.post-51962385564214851932010-05-30T18:56:39.938-07:002010-05-30T18:56:39.938-07:00A note of observation from last Tuesdays Town meet...A note of observation from last Tuesdays Town meeting, Councilman Lizzarga showed displeasure and apprehension over the upcoming agenda item on the stripping of powers of the incoming Mayor Foster.<br /><br />When he declared that he wished to voice his concerns and objections, he was told (as best that I can remember) that, “He was an elected official and could NOT speak as he wished. Please keep in mind that, that Town meeting was recorded and video taped from a number of people in the public section, so you should have NO problem in getting the exact words spoken.<br /><br />The only fly in the ointment comes from the actuality that I have seen over the last 10 years councilman exiting their chairs to step up to the public speakers podium to express their objections, views, and other related items without ever being stopped by the Town Attorney!<br /><br />What is it that former Mayor Huntley and the Town Council members are so terrified of from Mayor Foster? What is it that Town Manger Taft is hiding and/or afraid that Mayor Foster will find when he gets an independent outside audit of Quartzsite Town Records? The only answer now is, “Whom will be the first to turn States Evidence to get immunity from prosecution and personal time with Bubba in prison?”Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4132515532832473082.post-68399137417431817242010-05-29T18:20:23.605-07:002010-05-29T18:20:23.605-07:00Lizzarga was the only one smart enough to abstain,...Lizzarga was the only one smart enough to abstain, Kelley voted "nay" for the second time I can remember in a long while.

There are others on this council that need to go. I would say anyone that voted for restricting the mayors powers should be recalled. If some citizens don't like recalls, tough cookies! When the people voted in do the opposite of what their constituents would like to see happen, it's time to leave. NOW, not 4 years from nowMichael Rothnoreply@blogger.com
