City officials said Stewart did not leave the microphones when she left the mayor\u2019s office. \u00a0<\/p>\n<p>In a statement on Monday, Stewart defended purchases by saying they were included in the budget and reviewed in audits. This report disputes that.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The report said the mayor\u2019s office was over budget for office supplies in nine of the 10 years reviewed under Stewart and administrative expenses in eight of 10.
