The state DFA audit finds no fraud but cites technical non compliance and weak internal controls in Taos County finances. Officials warn of high risk from past deficits, bond financing, and a June 1999 revenue shortfall, urging continued staff cuts and stricter budget discipline to restore reserves by 2001.
