LEMON GROVE
Lemon Grove’s financial future remains uncertain, but the city recently received a clean audit for the first time in three years.
Greg Fankhanel, of Van Lant & Fankhanel LLP, told the City Council recently that a deep dive into the city’s budget from July 1, 2019 to June 30, 2020 showed no errors in accounting.
The firm said that previous audits uncovered the need for changes in financial management best practices. They found six issues in Fiscal Year 2017-18 and three more in 2018-19, all of which have been addressed, City Manager Lydia Romero said.
Auditors said they found no major issues this year mostly because Lemon Grove “has implemented new policies and procedures to ensure the accuracy of the city’s financial record-keeping and reduce opportunities for fraud,” they wrote in their report.
