City under audit scope

Are Vernon residents getting good value for their tax dollars?

The inner workings of City Hall will be revealed Monday as B.C.'s auditor general for local government releases a performance audit report on the City of Vernon.

The focus of the report: "Achieving Value for Money in Operational Procurement."

Acting Auditor General for Local Government Arn van Iersel will discuss his findings following release of the report.

Van Iersel was named AG in March, after the firing of Basia Ruta. He previously served as B.C.'s comptroller general and acting auditor general.

Ruta was dumped after controversy about the poor performance of her office and lack of reports – despite the fact the office was created to weed out government waste.
