The Office of the Comptroller of Puerto Rico issues a qualified opinion on the fiscal operations of the Municipality of Trujillo Alto related to the contracting of professional and consulting services, the use of credit cards, and travel and per diem expenses.
The Report reveals that the Municipality contracted for $500,618 a regular corporation for the design, supervision and other engineering services in 11 public works and improvements. The contracted corporation was not authorized to practice engineering since it was not constituted as a professional corporation. This situation was referred to the president of the College of Engineers and Surveyors on August 31, 2017, so that he may take the corresponding measures.
The two-finding audit notes that the Municipality lacks regulations for the use of credit cards. From 2012 to 2016 the mayor and the then-directors of Finance spent $48,145 charged to the credit cards.
The Report covers the period from January 1, 2012 to March 31, 2017.
