Taxpayers Push for County Audit at Emmetsburg Meeting
A Palo Alto county gathering at the Emmetsburg court house formed a Taxpayers League executive group to hire an accountant and audit county finances. They seek scrutiny of county bonds, paving contracts, the county engineer’s office, Farm Bureau spending, the poor fund, and printing contracts, urging economies and a transparent accounting to inform future taxes. Endorsed by local leaders, the effort aims to reveal missteps and curb unnecessary expenditures.
