Controversial Politics: Recent Developments and Their Implications
In a letter sent on Thursday evening, Auditor Timothy O'Brien expressed his concerns about a proposed budget cut to his office, addressing Mayor Mike Johnston directly. The content of the letter, which was published by a news outlet, has not specified the reasons for the proposed cut.
In the letter, Auditor O'Brien states that he believes Mayor Johnston does not have the authority to make the proposed budget cut. He further expresses concern about potential interference from the Mayor's office and the Finance Department, stating that these interferences are hindering his ability to perform his duties and preventing him from doing his job effectively.
Auditor O'Brien's letter also mentions that he has not found any relevant search results indicating when Denver Mayor Mike Johnston cut the elected audit office's budget or when he publicly criticised such an action. The letter does not mention any potential consequences if the budget cut is implemented.
This is not the first time Auditor O'Brien has spoken out about potential interference in his work. Previously, he has expressed similar concerns about the Mayor's office and the Finance Department.
