Urban Futures Fiasco Audit Continues On

URBAN FUTURES FIASCO continues on………..

A couple years ago Beaumont citizens appealed to Beaumont City Council to please AUDIT the CFD Mello-Roos restricted bond funds. Then Mayor Roger Berg responded that no matter what – he would never approve such a waste of money. Well, now the City is spending hundreds of thousands of our CFD tax dollars, not on building needed infrastructure, but rather lining the pockets of more consultants. WITH NOTHING TO SHOW FOR IT!

Everyone in the City always suspected that ALL THE MONEY WAS GONE. What we are learning now from seeing the CFD REQUISITIONS is that YES, the money was all spent. The invoices from all the engineering firms receiving this money are on the whole a big joke. They document that hundreds of thousands of dollars were paid to ‘principals’, ‘assistant managers’, ‘secretaries’ and ‘engineers’. Thousands more dollars for reimbursed travel expenses and stationary supplies. Reading the CFD requisitions and supposed supporting invoices available online will likely cause you to lose any dinner you may have consumed. So, be careful when you read them.
