July 14th UPDATE: Attorney bills out of control in Oakland Township? Accounting error found!
Treasurer Langlois discovers current accounting practice that is not consistent with Township Ordinance

At the July 14, 2015 Oakland Township Board meeting, Treasurer Langlois indicated that the expense for the legal (and possibly the other Township consultant) reviews of development proposals have not been properly allocated to the appropriate escrow accounts. This expense has been included in the monthly $9,000 legal retainer fee the Township Board approved shortly after they came into office. Treasurer Langlois indicated that this discovery might result in changes to the contract that the Township has with the Township’s legal firm.
This discovery raises many other questions regarding how the Township handles our legal bills.
