Episode Details

Hudson County commissioners are investigating a forensic audit of the Hudson County Schools of Technology finances, revealing major mismanagement from 2022 to 2025. The report highlights systemic budgeting failures and internal controls bypassed under former business administrator Nicholas Fargo. The county is preparing for its budget intro in May, with an eighty-four million dollar budget for 2026-2027, covering a three point six four million dollar deficit carryover. The budget hike led to a thirteen point five million dollar increase in the county tax levy. Officials plan to implement phased tuition starting next year, efficiency audits, and new grants to reduce waste. The previous administrations fiscal gimmicks are also being scrutinized.
