Clearview Acres Improvement District Wants Answers

Residentsof Clearview Acres Improvement District demanded answers and accountability from board members they elected to manage funds paid to the improvement district. Rock Springs is owed about $149,000 by the district for sewer services, and residents looking at payments made by the board discovered inappropriate purchases charged to the board. According to Lisa Tarufelli, clerk for the City of Rock Springs, the board has been behind in their sewer payments since November 2008. David Gillespie, a resident living in the improvement district, brought documents to the board showing a number of purchases he believes were misappropriated funds. Included in the purchases were a number of Wal-Mart gift cards, charged in amounts varying from $500 to $1,000 made by the board.
resident Ed Fletcher says that amounts to embezzlement in his eyes. The board spent $7,758.48 in Wal-Mart gift cards between November 2009 and November 2010 according to receipts given to the Green River Star.
