The City of Hernando is looking for a sports director to lead some of our recreational programs in our community.

This is a great opportunity for someone who wants to develop into a parks director role by leading sports programs that are growing in numbers, or for someone with experience in another city running recreational sports programs. If you are interested or have any questions, feel free to reach out to me for more details!

Tonight the Hernando Board of Aldermen voted to engage with an independent forensic auditor to check the practices and uses of the city’s utility fund. This is in addition to an annual audit required for many state and federal grant programs, and the additional audit was approved unanimously.

In the face of what was a growing deficit and budget errors in this fund, we seven board members had sworn when we took office to balance the city’s budget annually and to be fiscally responsible for taxpayer dollars. The money in this utility fund is not the board’s money, it is YOUR money, and this additional effort to find any root causes or mismanagement is crucial to fulfilling our oath of office and provide you with greater transparency. Thank you and God bless.

During last night’s board meeting, I requested board support for a forensic audit of our utility fund in light of the recent deficit. We will be reviewing proposals to move forward pending what the scope and cost for this audit would be. I appreciate the board’s support in this matter.

Anyone who receives water, sewer, garbage or a combination of these services deserves our due diligence from an independent professional to give us a financial review. This would be an additional audit on top of what is required by the state, and I think it is absolutely necessary to give the board and public some clarity. I will continue to post any updates as we move forward.
