So until that report finally hits the news stands, we'll have to content ourselves with another recently-completed document pertaining to the Authority: a rootin'-tootin' brand-spanking shiny new finance report! (Part One and Part Two, both PDFs.) Yee-haw! Remember back in 2004, when the Controller's management-letter-report thingy began by stating the the SFCTA "failed to perform or performed poorly many required accounting procedures,"[PDF] then went on to detail 20 pages' worth of accounting problems, including $67 million in misrecorded grants? We still get shivers about that. Well, it looks like thing have shaped up quite a bit since then, which is nice, since we don't exactly relish the thought of paying $2 billion in sales tax just to have it misplaced.

After the jump: more financial nitty-gritty. You know you like it. Also: what's still getting screwed up, because we love to complain.
