Indiana: Gary Urban Enterprise Association still avoiding inspection: Critics question whether new board has fulfilled state mandates

Nancy Levy send this story, noting the way non-profits sometimes decide that "non" part is just a meaningless little prefix that shouldn't prevent them from making money when they get the chance...

The new Gary Urban Enterprise Association board and its lawyer have slipped through a crack in open-door laws and are refusing to provide state-requested reports on the embattled nonprofit agency...No one appears able -- or willing -- to provide basic factual information on the nonprofit, whose former directors allegedly stole hundreds of thousands of dollars for personal travel and shopping sprees. After The Times obtained parts of a preliminary fraud investigation report by Crowe Chizek, the board has not sent anything further to the state, which must provide public access to the documents.
