Office of the Inspector General One North University Drive, Suite 111 Plantation, FL 33324 Timothy "Chaz" Stevens MyActsOfSedition.com MAOS Media Partners LLC 1600 S. Dixie Highway #300 Boca Raton, FL 33432 Dear Sir: On July 11, 2012, Ryan Hagen of The (San Bernardino County) Sun wrote: Evidence of budget falsification given to other agencies SAN BERNARDINO City Attorney Jim Penman said Wednesday that evidence of suspected wrongdoing has been turned over to the appropriate government agencies. Penman said little else in a phone interview and news conference the day after he announced that Interim City Manager Andrea-Travis Miller and Finance Director Jason Simpson had discovered that balances in each of the 13 years which were presented to the public and City Council as surpluses were deficits. Enclosed below, I have included several pages from the City of Lauderdale Lakes Fiscal Year 2013 Proposed Budget. Upon close review of same, I discovered the fraudulent accounting practice of double entries for the CRA TIF. We noted a reduction of $771,160 from the property tax collection, while at the same time, that same amount being budgeted for General Administration debt expenses. From your own agencys report, OIG Final Report Re: Gross Mismanagement of Public Funds by the City of Lauderdale Lakes, Ref. 0/G 11-017OIG: The OIG investigation also substantiated allegations that the Citys CRA funds were improperly used to pay City operating expenses, a practice which the Chairman of the CRA Boardwho was not aware of it at the timedescribed as a shell game. The City never paid the tax revenues owed to the CRA in 2010, and used a non-existent services agreement to budget for $800,000 in revenues from the CRA in 2011. I opine the City of Lauderdale Lakes, in particular City Manager Jonathan Allen and Finance Director Marie Elianor, are intentionally providing false budgetary information to general public. Page 2
The shell game that started in 2010 continues unchecked to this day. Therefore, I respectfully request the Broward Office of Inspector General thoroughly investigates this allegation and to the extent permitted by State or local law or regulations, any and all penalties, sanctions, or other disciplinary actions for violations of such standards be applied forthwith. I have also filed a complaint with the Broward State Attorneys Office. Happy hunting;
