Brentwood Board of Aldermen to Review State's Audit in January

The aldermen will meet with state auditors and be given a chance to respond to the state's audit of Brentwood's books and policies.

At the Dec. 17 Brentwood Board of Aldermen meeting mayor Pat Kelly announced that the board of aldermen will meet with state auditors on Jan. 29 in an executive session to review the state’s audit of the city.

The audit was triggered by a citizen-led petition drive in Summer 2011. The audit began in January of this year.

State Auditor's Office Communications Director Spence Jackson said the board of aldermen will be be given a chance to review the audit and respond to the findings.

Jackson said the step is a final piece of the audit, and the board's response will be included when it is released to the public.

The board of aldermen will have no power to edit the audit. It is expected to be released in early 2013.

When the audit is complete, state auditors will either present it in public in Brentwood, or give city officials and media representatives a copy.

Why is the state audit of Brentwood being reviewed by the alderman in closed session? The audit does not fall into the 3 areas that qualify for executive session: real estate, legal or personnel. Once again, this does not promote transparenccy.

I was just thinking, if you happen to see something.....like the sign in front of City Hall, or theRead More sign in Schnuck's parking lot....regarding something going on in Brentwood, now you can click on the "Post" board at the top of the page, and let people know what is happening in Brentwood. We have the new format so we can now post whatever we want. Just click and post. Anyone can do it too.

I doubt this discrepancy you think exists is because the editors have more of a connection toRead More Maplewood. I imagine it is because Maplewood officials and Chamber of Commerce members send press releases to the editors regarding upcoming events and news items. If you want your local community to have more of a presence in the Patch, I suggest you contact the proper officials in Brentwood and urge them to send such notices. Self-promotion for a community is a good thing, although in the case of Brentwood Days and other iconic Brentwood events, it was my understanding that the city didn't want it publicized and preferred it to be a smaller event.
