For well over a month now there's been a question as to how Downtown Greensboro Inc managed to come up with $184,000 more than they are supposed to have on their books. People find money all the time but people don't find $184,000 very often. Government funded non profits are required by State and Federal laws to disclose records to anyone who asks and yet DGI executives and board members refuse to disclose where the extra money came from to all who ask.
Finally, after much prodding from citizens, Greensboro City Manager Denise Turner Roth demanded DGI tell her today. The response from DGI: They refused to tell the Greensboro City Manager the source of $184,000 of somebody's funds.
I'd say it's time to end all taxpayer funding including the BID taxes paid to Downtown Greensboro Incorporated. Starve the bastards out and see how long they can survive on just $184,000. If their money laundering business is doing okay then I guess we'll still be stuck with them but if not I expect to see a few elites jumping from rooftops soon.
