State funds to Dolton cut as embattled 'supermayor' Tiffany Henyard tries to reinstate indicted police chief
Fox News
The Illinois State Comptroller Office has cut some funds to Dolton over the town's alleged failure to submit financial records, where controversial Mayor Tiffany Henyard has been accused of excessive spending.
Illinois State Comptroller Susana Mendoza has immediately suspended all "offset" funds to the village, saying it has been delinquent in annual reports including financial statements, audits, and Tax Increment Financing District reports over the last two years. Offset monies are collected from state payments that the comptroller's office withholds from people who owe fines like traffic tickets or other payments to municipalities, including Dolton.
