Walker County weighs need for forensic financial audit

LAFAYETTE — Walker County’s legislative delegation proposed requiring a forensic investigation of the county’s finances, prompting commissioners to hear from an expert about what it could uncover, how it differs from a routine financial audit, and how much it might cost. After learning of the delegation’s plans, County Attorney Ken Gerard arranged for forensic accountant David Sawyer to address the Board of Commissioners and explain how a forensic accounting investigation works. The delegation is House District 1 Rep. Mike Cameron, House District 2 Rep. Steve Tarvin and Senate District 53 Sen. Lanny Thomas. At a recent special called meeting, Sawyer presented his extensive credentials, then explained the purpose of a forensic audit and how it differs from the annual financial statement audit the county conducts each year. How a forensic investigation differs Sawyer, addressing county commissioners on Oct. 20, explained that “forensic audit” is a colloquial term used by the public, but the official term is forensic accounting investigation. Sawyer said a financial statement audit is a shallow review unlikely to uncover fraud or mismanagement of money. A forensic investigation digs deep and can discover padded contracts, overspending in expense accounts, even shell companies. Sawyer said he has audited many

Cherokee County fire recruits serve to support firefighter

Cherokee County Fire & Emergency Services recruits spent their day off on Monday showing support for a local firefighter with cancer. Recruit Class 26-01’s annual community service event “A Day for Dave” was for one of the department’s own, CCFES announced. “Fire Apparatus Operator Dave Beedle has been with the department since 2007 and has always been the first to step up when someone else needs help. Whether it’s a community service project or supporting a fellow firefighter, Dave is there, quietly, consistently, and wholeheartedly. Now, facing a diagnosis of small cell carcinoma, it was Dave who needed support,” the fire department wrote in a news release. “Recruit Class 26-01 answered that call. Recruits showed up to clear brush, clean up fallen trees, and rebuild a barn that was in need of a new roof.” “This is what it’s all about,” Training Captain James Lussier said in a statement. “Dave is always helping others at events like this, so it was the least we could do in his time of need. The recruits are learning that lots of hands make lite work.”

Floyd County eyes spring rehabilitation of Foster's Bend Road

Floyd County is moving closer to rehabilitating Foster's Bend Road after soil and pavement testing confirmed its previous concerns about the road's structure. The geotechnical report showed the road had a high clay content, little rock base and varying depths of asphalt that make a single rehabilitation approach difficult. Assistant Public Works Director Ben Brooks updated the Floyd County Public Utilities and Transportation Committee on Wednesday, outlining the project's next steps. "We will get a bid package out, hopefully before the end of this year, to have the full-depth reclamation done hopefully next spring and we will come in behind them and pave the entirety of that road," Brooks said. The Floyd County Commission hired Ahlberg Engineering in early July to perform geotechnical testing and soil-cement design work as part of the county's 2026 Local Road Assistance Administration funding. Bruce Ivey, the county's Public Services and Utilities Division director, said the report identified sections of Foster's Bend Road where lime stabilization may be a better option than other methods. "He recommended that we consider doing a one-mile test section," Ivey said. Public Works Director Michael Skeen said in a follow-up interview that engineers initially anticipated using Portland cement or a
