City Hall Investigation

As of noon Friday, specifics on the District Attorney's invesitgation of the City Treasurer's office are still hard to come by.

One new development is the likelihood that the City Council will convene next week for a special meeting to discuss the situation.

"That's a real possibility," City Manager N. Enrique Martinez said.

Martinez said the exact agenda for the meeting is still being figured out. The Council is likely to meet on Tuesday, which would mean that the agenda would be legally required to be posted today.

Here's what is known so far:

At some time, Police Chief Jim Bueermann requested the District Attorney's Public Integrity Unit investigate the City Treasurer's office. The nature of the allegations, and whether investigators are zeroed in on City Treasurer Mike Reynolds, another individual working for the office or some combination of people has not been disclosed.

District Attorney's spokeswoman Susan Mickey said she could not offer any comments on the case. The office and City Hall have confirmed that a search warrant was served at the treasuer's offices on Wednesday.
