Grassroots: How About We Check Their Business Liscense First?

Dang is suggesting that before the City of Greensboro continues to do business with Betty Cone and Grassroots Productions LTD, the City of Greensboro should start a new RFP (Request For Proposals) for the "services" Grassroots provides to the City of Greensboro. I don't disagree but before the City does any business with Betty Cone we need to know she actually has her ducks in a row.

You see, it was your's truly that broke the story last summer that Betty Cone and Grassroots had not filed taxes in several years a month to the day before the News & Record covered the story which forced Ms Cone to convert her non profit to a for profit corporation. But did she do so? Not according to the North Carolina Secretary of State.

Unless they are operating under a new name, Grassroots has not updated their filings with the NC Secretary of State since 1995 in which case they should have filed a form dissolving the old name which is not showing as having been done at the NC Secretary of State Website: Grassroots is not a legal for profit nor a legal non profit.

Why is it Betty Cone finds it so hard to operate within the law?
