Impact analysis
Local taxpayers are footing the bill for the outside investigation plus the salaries of two workers who aren't currently on the job.
Nobody really wins here yet, but transparency advocates will be glad someone is finally looking closely at how these grants were handled.
The employees on leave are stuck in professional limbo, and the town's daily operations might take a hit while they're gone.
