Politicians and people in power use dirty tricks to get what they want, if the rules are just inconvenient.
More money changing hands could involve dealings with unions, politicians wanting to point at spending to justify higher budgets, one politician wanting another's territory, someone getting kickbacks, a private company involved (someone's brother in law profiting from the spending)... I have no idea what. Inventing a scandal justifies a power move, and helps squash dissent (forget the cost to the town.) Maybe someone was out looking for a reason to change the rules of this organization, or maybe someone wanted to get noticed and bid for a promotion. Furries having a party made a convenient scapegoat.
The claim about "unseemly" photos with no photos ever shown smells like a lie. "zero-tolerance stance"? More like "zero-evidence stance"!
Moralistic accusations involving sex are the modern form of yelling "witch!"
