NEW: Adams County’s feud with treasurer could grind “operations to a halt” for half a million residents: by abuvthefold
communication breakdown with the county treasurer’s office
Duncan wrote that “due to having no access to financial records held in the Treasurer’s Office,” the county of half a million residents could face “severe consequences” if her department is unable to complete the 2021 annual audit. Duncan’s memo is the latest development in a months-long legal battle between Adams County and its elected treasurer, Lisa Culpepper, whoaccusing her office of shoddy bookkeeping, including a more than six-month late accounting of $90 million in federal COVID-19 relief money and more than half a million dollars sent by her office to taxing jurisdictions that weren’t owed the money.
Culpepper, a Democrat, declined to go into details with The Post about the case, saying in a brief phone interview that “it’s a constitutional question that is being dealt with in the courts.” Her attorney, J. Kirk McGill, said his client believes “these claims are without merit.” “It’s frustrating that the courts aren’t moving fast enough to give us the help and relief we need,” Henry said. “Basically, our finance department is moving blindly. I think is incompetent and she’s too proud to admit it.”
