Audit questions Area XV Ottumwa school finances
State Auditor Lloyd R. Smith criticizes Area XV and the Ottumwa based Iowa Technical Institute for inadequate records and unusual expenditures. The report cites a 1921.41 travel expense for five directors and the superintendent to Las Vegas, moving reimbursements, and weak receivables and inventory controls. The board is asked to respond within 30 days. Everingham says the area adopts the Iowa uniform accounting system to improve budgeting and control starting July 1, 1969.
