"SANDAG Under Federal Investigation for Oversight and Disclosure Failures"
A new investigation from the San Diego Association of Governments (SANDAG) has revealed significant financial mismanagement and lack of oversight in toll-road operations, resulting in substantial revenue losses and potential federal scrutiny. The agency's senior management was aware of deficiencies for over a year before informing the board, and the report has sparked calls for accountability and potential criminal investigations. SANDAG's internal auditor highlighted the agency's failure to address serious concerns with its tolling contractor and called for a detailed review of senior management's actions.
