Vote 'yes' for Portland auditor independence, lodging tax amendment: Editorial endorsement
City of Griffin | May 03, 2017
The measure, spearheaded by City Auditor Mary Hull Caballero and forwarded to the ballot unanimously by the Portland City Council earlier this year, would amend the city charter to give the auditor greater control over internal functions and the budgeting process to help protect its role as an independent watchdog of the rest of city government.
