INCLINE VILLAGE, Nev. – Mark Case is running for the Incline Village General Improvement District to bring truth, logic, common sense, and fiscal responsibility to the board of trustees. “That’s what I’m running on,” Case said emphasizing that he wants locals to be fairly represented.
“In the past 15 to 20 years, I have noticed a disconnect between what the community wants and what the board of trustees votes to approve,” Case said. “The past boards have misspent millions of our dollars by hiring consultant after consultant to advise the board on how to spend our money. These consultants have not provided any beneficial information that we could use to help us run our district.
” The primary issue facing the district is the lack of financial oversight, Case said. A forensic financial audit was completed and there are 40 items of concern. Sixteen of the 40 items are considered fraudulent if not criminal by the company providing the audit.
“The forensic audit identified some rather disturbing details in the misuse of procurement cards,” Case said referring to the 85 procurement cards for 150 full-time employees. “There is no oversight on how these cards are used, which raises a high level of possible fraud.” Employee retention is an issue.
There has been no finance manager for awhile. The district now has an interim general manager. “There is no monthly reconciliation in any of the departments,” Case said.
“The food and beverage department does no.
