The public is often kept in the dark on government financials when council leadership lacks financial acumen and/or financial integrity.
In Bell’s first year as chair the public has not been shown these vital reports:
- The budget worksheet report
- The budget organizational report
- The all important annual audit.
- An income statement.
- A balance sheet.
And now the payment register, which has not been updated since Jason Taylor left the county’s employ in June, 2021.
What is this council hiding – incompetence, corruption or both?
