1.0 BACKGROUND
At the Council meeting held on November 23, 2009, Council requested
information pertaining to the amount that the Municipality has spent on the
Compliance Audits of John Mutton's 2006 Mayoral Campaign.
In June 2007, council granted a request for the compliance audit and appointed
Horn Almand Chartered Accountants to complete it. Mr. Horn presented his
report in November 2007, however, he was later challenged before The Institute
of Chartered Accountants of Ontario. The Institute found that Mr. Horn had not
completed a proper audit and he faced disciplinary measures. Accordingly, a
second audit was approved and Bernard G. Nayman was appointed to complete
the audit.
