-------- Your tax dollars at work ---------
Included in the receipts received from SWSDA is a receipt that purportedly claims that SWSDA's CEO paid $217.42 to the Rodd Grand Hotel in Yarmouth at 11:55PM on December 31, 2005. This SWSDA CEO tab for New Year's Eve at the Rodd Grand in 2005 was $177.42 and pencilled in on the copy of the document submitted as an expense claim by Mr. Anderson was a tip for $40.00. I assume Mr. Anderson was reimbursed for this expense since it appears in his SWSDA travel expense claims for 2005-2006.
Should we assume that SWSDA's Board members were aware that this expenditure was being charged to taxpayers of the nine municipalities or was it a legitimate charge against one of SWSDA's Project Accounts? If they were aware, can we assume that they are satisfied that it is an expense that should be borne by municipal taxpayers, or drawn from the monies provided by provincial and federal taxpayers in the name of community economic development?
Stay tuned for more. Tomorrow we'll have a piece about "liability" of Board Members.

I hope his hangover the next day was a doozy! What nerve to submit an expense claim for this, and he was with the Bank of Montreal in Y'mouth before this? This isn't looking good. Sure hope the rest of the province's development agencies don't operate like this one has been. Terrible!
