Audit: Inept SDC kept food from poor Agency officials' spending called `lavish'; Audit's key findings SDC paid for lodging for training conferences in the Milwaukee area. For example, $25,700 was spent for 116 staff members at a conference in Oconomowoc, and more than $7,200 was spent for training and lodging costs at a hotel in Milwaukee County.

A $750 printing order was awarded to the vendor whose bid was 88% higher than the lowest bid.
