City of Athens considers forensic audit

The Athens City Council will consider ordering a forensic audit of the city’s financials at its meeting this evening at the Athens Partnership Center.

The forensic audit is being considered because City officials have identified about $1 million in additional funds they didn’t expect that they want to ensure were accounted for on the City’s books. Officials also are looking into why it appears the City was understating its available resources in the past.

The meeting is scheduled to begin at 5:30 p.m.
