City of Midlothian

Expenditures

Police Department

(From Oct 2006 through Nov 2007)

 

Citizens of Midlothian --

this is YOUR tax money Mayor Whatley and city council are spending --

 

You have a right to know where it's being spent!

 

Note:  Some of these figures show expenditures that may be questionable, but that's not the "real story."  The amazing thing is that scores of employees have credit cards, and there's very little info on the general ledger except that it was paid to a credit card.  We feel providing this many credit cards could lend itself to abuse and lack of control.

  • $7,468.89 -- Highest observed monthly charge to Chase credit card during the 4-month period.  Description:  "09806 JPMC 110507 BLDG INSP 3094"  (Support services, building renovation, 11/05/2007)
     

  • $7,299.02 -- 2nd highest observed monthly charge to Chase credit card during the 4-month period.  Description:  "09839 JPMC 120507/AL HAAK/CH R 3094" (Support services, building renovation, 12/05/2007)
     

  • $4,883.23 -- 3rd highest observed monthly charge to Chase credit card during the 4-month period.  Description:  "09670 JPMC 100507 BLDG INSPECT 3094"  (Support services, building renovation, 10/05/2007)
     

  • $4,061.56 -- 4th highest observed monthly charge to Chase credit card during the 4-month period.  Description:  "09839 STEVE EGANMOTO RODEO/GAS 3094"  (Police Department, vehicle maintenance, 12/05/2007)
     

  • $3,400.00 for mowing from 6/18/07 - 9/12/07 (Signature Contracting Services).  (Hint:  look for mowing charges at the fire department -- you won't find any.)
     

  • $171.71 for "D-STROY W/MORNING FRESH," Inv #93438344, 6/19/07, Acuity Specialty Products.
     

  • $171.71 for "D-STROY W/MORNING FRESH," Inv #93438344, 6/19/07, State Chemical Mfg.

     Doesn't it seem strange to pay the same amount for the same invoice number on the same date to two different vendors?
     

  • $464.47 for "hat badges" on 10/18/06.
     

  • $236.69 for  a "belt/radio holder" on 10/30/06.
     

  • Charges to a credit card referenced as "3094":

  $385.65
