Audit: Missing money from Kane County coffers linked to county treasurerSALT LAKE CITY — A review of Kane County bank accounts has identified $90,791 in misappropriated or missing money linked to the county treasurer, according to the Utah State Auditor's Office. Meanwhile, Kane County officials believe much more is missing. Between Jan. 1, 2013, and Jan. 31, 2016, state auditors identified 46 "improper and illegal" transfers totalling $34,600 made from Kane County accounts to those of Kane Country Treasurer Georgia Baca, according to findings released Monday. A ledger of property tax payments indicates $56,191 in cash, which Baca was responsible for, came into the office but was never deposited. "Potential financial irregularities may have occurred prior to the period we reviewed and may have occurred in other areas," the audit report signed by audit director Van Christensen says. "Therefore, this preliminary report should not be interpreted to mean that all potential misuse of funds has been identified."
