State auditor declines audit of Iowa City school district
Iowa State Auditor David Vaudt has rejected a request to audit the Iowa City school district. He said the petitioned review falls outside his office scope though the district disclosed 2 million dollars in bookkeeping errors and a 25 thousand dollar IRS payroll tax late payment fine. The district has hired Synesi Associates for internal control work at 59 thousand dollars and aims to complete the audit by year end.
