Washoe County's Tahoe Prosperity Center Funding Under Scrutiny
Amid a $27 million budget deficit, Washoe County's funding of the Tahoe Prosperity Center raises serious questions about fiscal responsibility and potential conflicts of interest.
Key Concerns:
Washoe County Commissioner Alexis Hill sits on the board of the Tahoe Prosperity Center
The county previously allocated $47,500 in ARPA (American Rescue Plan Act) funds to the organization on July 18, 2023
A proposed $10,000 funding allocation remains under consideration? Or is it?
