Benton parks board members are trying to find their cash after an audit revealed mismanaged funds at a Tyndall Park concession stand.
Parks director Curtis McCormack and assistant director Kitty Smith are on paid leave while the investigation continues.
The city attorney says the parks department was running the stand as a cash only operation in 2011 but the city's accounting office had no clue.
