This story makes me sick. If it had been their money that paid for these supplies, , this "error" would not have been made. So who is going to reimburse the taxpayers for this "error"? From the facts given to us in the article there is no excuse for leaving these supplies outside. They were certainly too big to have been overlooked. I am rather tired of having to pay for mistakes made by public employees.

My question is: how could seven MILLION dollars of ANYTHING purchased with tax dollars be so superfluous that no one noticed its absence? The other article I read about this mentioned that the county was not who discovered this error. A tip was given to one of the local TV stations, who ran an investigative story on it.

Thank you for shining light on this debacle.
