Council names interim city auditor
Thursday, November 20, 2014 by Elizabeth Pagano
After toying with the idea of appointing Deputy City Auditor Corrie Stokes as the new city auditor outright, City Council pulled back Thursday and voted to name her interim auditor instead. Council voted 7-0 for a substitute motion, appointing Stokes as the acting city auditor. That will be effective Dec. 1. The substitute motion also states that “the Council expresses its full confidence that Corrie Stokes demonstrates the qualifications and has the requisite experience to be a high-performing city auditor in service to the city, and strongly urges the new Council to appoint her as city auditor.”
