Glendale placed two more top administrators on paid leave Thursday in response to an extensive audit that detailed how employees shifted millions of dollars among internal accounts to cover the true costs of an early-retirement program.
In all, new City Manager Brenda Fischer has placed four administrators on leave in response to the audit, which was commissioned by the City Council at a projected cost of $500,000.
All four were aware of the ballooning costs of the early-retirement program but failed to promptly notify members of the council, according to the audit.
