Company reimburses Davenport for missing funds

A central Iowa company is paying back an eastern Iowa city after thousands of dollars vanished. A facility management company has reimbursed the city of Davenport nearly 14-thousand dollars missing from its RiverCenter-Adler Theatre complex. Compass Facility Management of Ames has run the theater and exhibition venue for five years. The company began an internal investigation last month following an audit at the complex. At the same time, Michael Hartman, the Compass employee who has been the executive director at the RiverCenter-Adler since 1999, turned in his resignation. Police say they’re checking to see if any laws were broken. They say Compass officials are cooperating in the investigation.
