Illinois Comptroller says embroiled Village of Dolton is refusing audit
DOLTON , Ill. -- New financial problems have surfaced in south suburban Dolton —having to do with taxpayer money and the village's failure to let people know where it is being spent.According to the State of Illinois , Mayor Tiffany Henyard's administration not only refuses to get an audit done, but also won't even communicate with the state agency tasked with the job of watching over government spending.
'But for now, the state is cutting off Dolton's offset payments—funds Illinois deducts from state payments going out to people, such as income tax refunds or lottery payouts. For the Village of Dolton, that is about $135,000.Dolton is not the only municipality behind on providing an audit report—yet CBS News Chicago is told it is the only one in the state that flat-out refuses to talk to the comptroller.'Not in our administration has it ever come to this point,' Pallasch said.
