A 2005 audit from a St. Louis suburb has raised questions about the front-runner to become city manager in West Des Moines. Finalists to replace Jeff Pomeranz were introduced earlier this week, and Patrick Banger, the former city manager of O'Fallon, Mo., emerged as the favorite. But city officials reopened the search Wednesday and said they would send a group to Missouri to look further into the background of Banger. A city audit in Missouri turned up salary incentives and a trip to Ireland, and now that city's expense report is being questioned. City officials still have a high interested in Banger, but they have to get past this investigation to proceed.
