Mayor Susan Fennell of Brampton, Ont., breached spending rules 265 times, a forensic audit has found.


The audit by Deloitte was released late Tuesday night after a four-month investigation.


It found more than $131,000 in expenses made by Fennell and her staff went against city rules.  


It also said another 79 expenses totalling more than $150,000 may have breached the rules.


Some of the expenses include non-economy flight passes, premium hotel rooms and credit card charges that were not for city business.


The report found no evidence of wrongdoing for a trip to Florida for a sister-city agreement.


It also cleared the mayor of using city staffers for organizing private fundraisers.


Fennell released a statement saying she accepts much of the report but not all of it.


“I have not read all of the report. I accept much of what it has to say, but not all of what it has to say,” Fennell said. 


"If there are changes that need to be made, I will make them.”
