Summary
Mayor Danny Avula said an internal memo claiming top Richmond officials knew about a city worker’s second job with a solar company is under review for accuracy.
Records cited in the report show senior officials never signed off on the employee’s dual employment while the city was negotiating a contract with that company.
The dispute centers on whether city leadership had prior knowledge of a potential conflict involving a worker tied to a firm seeking city business.
