Message: From GoLocalProv by Stephen Beale, GoLocalProv News Editor: Providence overspent its budget last year to the tune of nearly $144 million while the unfunded costs of the city retirement system ballooned to well over $1 billion, according to a new independent audit that outlines in stark detail the full extent of the city’s fiscal crisis. “It’s awful government. They should be ashamed of what they’ve done. It’s total mismanagement—drunken sailors could do better,” said Joe Rodio, the chief legal counsel to city police union. http://www.golocalprov.comhttp://beta.golocalprov.com/providence-city-audit
