Impact analysis
The city is set to recover over $100,000, but that’s money taxpayers already lost and may not cover the full cost or disruption.
Spencer taxpayers and city services benefit if the restitution actually returns the stolen public money to city coffers.
Taxpayers were harmed when their money was taken, and city services may have suffered while funds were missing.
