Auditor finds $10,715 in misallocated payroll at county youth mentoring provider
Community Partners, paid about $2 million for Credible Messenger services, is asked to repay any excess billing.
A county review found Community Partners charged $10,715 in shared payroll costs using time estimates rather than actual hours worked, and lacked separation of duties over cash handling. The Auditor-Controller asks the nonprofit to recheck and resubmit its 2024-25 invoices by September 30, 2026, and repay any excess; the Department of Youth Development will track corrective action.
