Recent Ellenville Audit Shows Auerbach Was Right to Blow Whistle


Our hat comes off to Ulster County Coptroller Elliott Auerbach, a recent audit of the Village of Ellenville raised a few red flags on some of the financial practices of the Village by NYS Comptroller Tom DiNapoli.


Elliott Auerbach, the Village manager at the time, blew the whistle on this whole mess, after noticing discrepancies from the village treasurer's office (the treasure is the chief fiscal officer) he reported them to the village board who did nothing about it.


The Village boards response or lack thereof promoted Auerbach to call for the NYS Comptroller's audit. Good to see that Elliott Auerbach was blowing the whistle on waste fraud and abuse long before he became the watchdog of Ulster County.

    Goood for Eliot for doing the right thing. The right thing and the popular thing is not always the same. Thank you Mr. Comptroller.

    Hugh Reynolds says it best.....

    Republican impotence — some say collusion — will have consequences, probably within the next few months.
