Former Head of CCDC Accepted Money from Developer with Project in Downtown SD

Tom Fudge: Nancy Graham resigned as the head of San Diego's downtown redevelopment arm, the CCDC, in July. She said she needed to take care of her sick mother, but local folks were left wondering if that was the real reason she left.

The other is called Lennar Corporation.

He says this will require the development agency to take new official action on any deal that was compromised by Graham's failure to disclose her financial relationships. Were talking about deals, here, that involve hundreds of millions of dollars.
