P-card audit

Submitted by R. Neal on Wed, 2008/05/14 - 9:44am.

In case you missed it, the final p-card audit has been submitted with Mayor Ragsdale's responses to questioned expenditures. WBIR has a copy.

One of the questioned charges (pg. 40): "#59 9/30/05 - J's Mega Mart - $19.65"

The Mayor's office explanation is "Gas-only purchase for Knox County vehicle."

J's Mega Mart, known for its fine selection of wigs and swords, is, as you know, at 417 S. Gay Street. I've been by there hundreds of times, and I don't recall seeing any gas pumps.

Has Knox County converted their executive SUV's to run on alternative fuels, like maybe Aqua Velva?

Scott McNutt has more.

And rest assured, Ragsdale and the folks in Suite 615 spent just as much as this offender did, they just happened to spend it all on travel, meals, and lodging, which in my opinion, none was warranted or justified anyway.

Thanks!

Thanks for the link. I just think it a wildly amusing Knoxcentricity that one of the undocumented P-card charges should be at J's.
