The opponents of the independent city auditor ballot initiative haven't presented any viable arguments yet on why they oppose objective and unbiased accountability and transparency.  The mayor has said she is"concerned" and "afraid", but still hasn't made much sense.

Lucy Vinis stated in her 6-22 Eugene Weekly Guest Viewpoint, Doing More, that "we already have a strong audit department in our finance division."  I don't think that is correct, she must be referring to the accounting department, which doesn't conduct any audits.  

Unless the opponents say exactly why they're against an independent auditor, they're really not interested in any accountability.
