Top Glendale administrators, including interim City Manager Horatio Skeete, signed off on improper transfers from a city fund to help make ends meet, according to more than three years of records reviewed by The Arizona Republic.
An internal audit this past summer turned up the wrongdoing and showed that the Glendale City Council and an oversight board often were kept in the dark or told about transfers after the fact, and with few details.
In all, $6 million in transfers over the past three years will impact a tight Glendale budget as city officials must repay at least part of the improperly tapped funds.
