Couple homeless after Hughes St. fire
ZANESVILLE - Firefighters from three departments battled flames as well as the elements Monday afternoon as an apartment fire left a local couple homeless. Leonard Butler, 56; his two grandsons; Butler's girlfriend, Elizabeth Wheeler, 26; as well as a pet dog were home at the time the fire broke out at 916 Hughes Street around 3:45 p.m. .
'Nevermore' not a good way to run a city
First, the city's auditors issued a recent report that slammed the municipality for failing to keep track of cash. The report covering the fiscal year ending in September 2005 said that the city's control of money was so poor that auditors couldn't track cash it collected.
The amount of money that was supposed to be in the bank was short by $2.9 million when compared against what the city books said should be there.
This is no small math error. This is a case of Amateur Hour in the finance department. This is what auditors call a "material weakness" in handling public money because the city's records are so sloppy that it's almost impossible to determine whether error or fraud is at work.
But la-de-da-de-da. Nobody talks about this at City Commission meetings.
