State Sen. Anthony Cannella (R-Ceres) was appointed to the Joint Legislative Audit Committee Wednesday. The committee, chaired by Assemblyman Adam Gray (D-Merced), is tasked with performing all audits of state and local government, as directed by the legislature. Some are mandated audits, like the state's annual financial audit, while others are discretionary, usually relating to performance issues, financial issues, and whether an entity or program is complying with the law.
