Alerted mayor to mismanagement in fire department. Vindicated by state auditor.
$6 million solution: cut 64 positions saving $6.5 million annually. Vindicated by CIR.

Police contract initially rejected.

Omaha Housing Authority
Local Government Performance Audits
Sewer Water Project
City-County Merger
