8c6z-qnmjEvery check is sorted into the City’s own fund type (the same buckets as the Money Map). Within each fund we split the money two ways: traceable (the check names a contract or a delivery order under a master agreement) vs. direct (no source document referenced at all).
A large direct payment is the core oversight signal — “we’re paying real money we can’t tie back to a competed contract or deliverable.” This view makes that gap visible rather than pretending the delivery-order → master-agreement linkage is solved (it isn’t, in the city’s published data).
Of $1,713,437,551 paid from this fund in the window, $98,220,833 ties to a contract we can open here, $1,477,646,666 references a delivery order under a master agreement, and $137,570,052 is direct (no contract referenced) across 120 checks.
