Detroit to hold payroll audit for city employees
DETROIT (AP) -- Detroit Mayor Dave Bing's office is verifying who actually works and receives checks from the city as part of a payroll audit.
Bing's office said last week that the mayor picked up his pay stub last Friday morning.
The audit also will be conducted Monday and March 3. City employees are required to bring state-issued identification or a passport to pick up their pay checks or stubs.
Finance Director Cheryl Johnson says she doesn't expect to find any "ghost employees" with the audit, which is part of Detroit's efforts to be fiscally responsible and eliminate waste and fraud.
Detroit faces a $200 million budget deficit. Bing says he hopes to avoid the appointment by Gov. Rick Snyder of an emergency manager to oversee the city's finances.
