HUD auditors indict Delaware County economic program misuse
A federal audit finds at least 1.4 million in misused HUD funds from the Delaware County Partnership for Economic Development and calls for halting HUD support. It cites ineligible travel, banquets, printing, and consultant costs, plus ineffective loan programs and weak oversight. County figures deny culpability while facing repayment demands and program termination.
