This audit questions the
appropriateness of some expenditures made with monies restricted for street
and highway purposes or transportation projects, including excise tax
revenue. The County needs to determine the magnitude of monies spent
inappropriately and reimburse the Gila County Road Fund with revenue from
its General Fund or other unrestricted sources. In addition, the impact of
the excise tax on solving the County’s transportation problems is unclear
because the County lacks key documents that could help demonstrate impact.
The County is taking some steps that will allow it to more clearly
demonstrate impact, such as developing a process for tracking excise tax
expenditures separately from other Road Fund expenditures, and should
continue its efforts.
