This Thursday, City Council will vote on a resolution calling for an audit of the City’s tech infrastructure.

The non-binding proposal, introduced by Councilman David Oh, cites concerns over bookkeeping errors and the $19-milllion budget increase from the Office of Innovation and Technology, and calls on City Controller Rebecca Rhynhart to perform a “forensic audit” of the city’s infrastructure. Should the resolution pass, Rhynhart will be tasked with delivering a detailed report with the audit’s findings.

“In today’s world, technological infrastructure is every bit as important as other components of the City’s infrastructure. Technology enables the City to provide security for its residents, ensure that services are provided in an efficient manner, and make better use of taxpayer dollars,” said Councilman Oh in a press release. “If the Controller’s audit finds that the City’s technology assets are faulty or failing, addressing that should be a top concern.”
