Minnesota Gambling Control Board Wrong to Pay Board Members13 July 2000ST. PAUL, MINNESOTA -- July 13, 2000 – As reported by Associated Press: "The Gambling Control Board is contesting a report released Thursday by the legislative auditor that alleges three board members were inappropriately paid daily allowances from September 1996 through May 2000. "The report recommends that the board members repay $3,245 they received for attending board functions. State law prohibits government employees from receiving the payment if they are reimbursed from another source, which board officials say they were not. "…The case was referred to the attorney general's office, which will decide whether to pursue reimbursement from the employees." |
