WEDC open for business: Another 'no vetting' special deal


Photo credit:  Oneida Eye

Oh, there's lots more.

Warrants allege Green Bay businessman defrauded WEDC for more than $1 million.  (Chippewa Herald, 10/15/2015)
The Green Box case bears similarities to a $500,000 loan to Building Committee Inc., which the State Journal first reported in May. In both cases, the companies didn’t disclose prior lawsuits to WEDC and defaulted on their loans, and yet WEDC continued working with them. WEDC officials have said policies have been put in place to ensure such cases don’t happen again.
