Bell's Rizzo used low-income housing funds to boost his pay, audit says
Controller's report on redevelopment agency finds $520,000 in dubious spending and $500,000 in inappropriate payments to three top administrators as the City Council provided no 'meaningful oversight.'
Bell's former Chief Administrative Officer Robert Rizzo and two other top officials got a portion of their lucrative compensation by taking hundreds of thousands of dollars from a fund that was supposed to be used to provide housing for low-income residents, according to a state audit released Wednesday.
