City of Jennings Broke State Law

The American Press reports that the City of Jennings is accused of braking two state laws by failing to submit its annual audit report in a timely manner and failing to secure funds deposited in financial institutions, according to a routine audit presented to the council on Wednesday. The council explains that the delay in filing the annual audit report was due to the implementation of a new accounting system and the collection of new information. The council responded to the second allegation by stating that all funds were fully secured by July 31, 2004.
