These are the audits? Just dust and smoke.

So Mike Conners now tells us he answered the FOIL request for his audits.

What he delivered was a box of papers. But the FOIL request was for a list of audits. Just a simple list so County resources would not be needlessly dedicated to pulling files that are not important. Hell, if he were organized he could have produced a list in 10 minutes. But no, he had staff plowing through the County archives.

He is obscuring the fact that he has no list of audits, and has not completed audits for basic County processes in years, if ever. Piles of boxes that took the Comptroller over a month to find and retrieve from the County's Hall of Records is a typical delay tactic--bury what was asked for in materials that were not needed.

Dust and smoke.
