Report Fraud & Ethics Violations
The Town of Sahuarita is taking a proactive stance against fraud and ethics violations in Town government. The Fraud and Ethics Violations Reporting System is a method for citizens, vendors, or employees to confidentially report fraud directly to a third party site.
This reporting system is intended to be used to report fraud and ethical violations committed by or against the Town of Sahuarita, its employees and/or vendors. Other types of fraud or ethical concerns may be directed to the Arizona Attorney General. Below is a sample list of fraud or ethical concerns that could be reported.
Why should I use the Fraud and Ethics Violations Reporting System?
Integrity matters. Being honest and trustworthy in our dealings with each other and with citizens makes Sahuarita a better place to work and live. Every dollar lost to fraud is a dollar that could have, and should have, been used to provide services to citizens.
