The City of Williamsport’s controller acknowledged Monday that she was aware of an investigation taking place into River Valley Transit’s handling of federal and state grants between 2009 and 2019.
“It is still being investigated, but that is all I know,” Controller Margaret Woodring said Monday after reports of the investigation surfaced late last week. “I’ve not been contacted by the state at all.”
Attempts to reach the offices of Attorney General Josh Shapiro were not successful.
City employees said Shapiro agents are focused on grant use and lumping together of grant resources and improper accounting.
