Norwalk Finance Head Attacks Auditor Report at Council
George blasted a state auditor's review criticizing the city's finances as vindictive and poorly founded. The council moved a 1978 budget of 2.9 million to first reading and set a public hearing for December 20 at 8 p.m. The audit flagged a chaotic bond fund and imbalanced general fund, but George argued most issues were procedural and no funds were missing.
