It’s hard to know what to make of Thursday’s audit committee meeting, where Gloucester-Southgate Coun. Diane Deans had the audacity to ask — yet again — for an audit of the spending on the first phase of the city’s light rail transit system.

Deans made the same request last year and was told that just wasn’t possible. Let’s revisit that in 2016, she was told.
