Washington County Tennessee Commissioner Kent Harris Has Questioned County Mayor Joe Grandy Over Thousands Of Dollars In Late Fees That Haven’t Been Paid Over The Last Two Years. He Claims Cutoff Notices Were Also Sent From Brightridge Because The Mayor Failed To Pay Power Bills On Time. Harris Says This Adds Up To Nearly $10,000 In Taxpayer Money…..
However, Grandy Told Us, The Brightridge Issue Is Due To A Quick Turn Around As To When The Bills Are Received And Paid, But That No Power Has Ever Been Cut Off. As For The Special Account, He Said Its Not A Payable Account But Rather A Tracking Account In Order To Monitor Any Late Fees. Grandy Says Most Late Fees Dealt With A Fuelman Account For The Sheriff’s Office…..
Harris Plans To Bring Up The Issue Again At The Next Meeting.
