McDaniel CPA notified Mount Vernon city officials Monday morning that it is resigning from its payroll agreement with the city.
In the resignation letter, CPA Rene McDaniel cited a lack of confidence that payroll will be finalized in a timely manner going forward or that necessary information will be provided.
The letter states the firm has “encountered roadblocks every step of the way” from the city auditor’s office. It also states that auditor staff “have not been forthcoming with information needed to process payroll correctly and have then accused our office of making mistakes.”
