Today, Finance Director Rob Dubow and Philadelphia Parking Authority (PPA) Executive Director Vincent J. Fenerty Jr. accepted the findings of an Office of Inspector General (OIG) investigation into ticket-fixing at the Bureau of Administrative Adjudication (BAA), and have terminated three employees and accepted the resignation and retirement of three others. Although the OIG does not have express jurisdiction over the PPA, the Parking Authority welcomes the Inspector General’s assistance and has cooperated fully in the investigation.
\”While it is a sad day whenever government workers have been found doing wrong, Amy’s joint investigation of the BAA and the PPA shows that government watchdogs are working,\” said Mayor Michael A. Nutter. \”I thank Vince and the Parking Authority for working in close cooperation with the Inspector General’s Office to stamp out corruption. I fully expect the OIG, the BAA, and the PPA to work together to set the appeals system right.\”
