The final report of the Phase II Forensic Accounting Investigation of the District’s school construction bond program completed by Vicenti, Lloyd & Stutzman, CPAs is available on this website. While the document is available in its entirety, it has also been broken up into more easily downloadable segments. While it is tempting to move directly to the results and recommendations in Section III and Section IV, VLS strongly suggests reading and understanding the methodology included in subsection A of Section III and Section IV.
