Money for nothing: Sweet Appomattox deal turned sour for Virginia, McAuliffe
Jeff Sturgeon Jan 16, 2016 -https://roanoke.com/business/money-for-nothing-sweet-appomattox-deal-turned-sour-for-virginia-mcauliffe/article_4e5c1198-2e73-513b-becd-5848edb5e3e9.html
Virginia and its Governor’s Opportunity Fund bet $1.4 million on a failed business deal near Lynchburg that exposed the state’s weak control over industrial incentives and the application process for companies seeking grant money.
An investigation by The Roanoke Times found:
State analysts relied on a company website produced in China featuring misleading information, including the listing of a North Carolina address where the company never was located and production photographs and text lifted from an unaffiliated American company.
Text similar to material on the website appeared in a pre-approval request to the state commerce secretary and a briefing for the governor before his meeting in Beijing with a project principal.
Officials also relied on a site consultant who vouched for the company but hadn’t asked basic background questions, such as the company’s address in China, until shortly before the deal was closed.
Approached by the same players in 2013, North Carolina officials made checks and asked questions that Virginia officials did not.
Only after the project appeared to stall did Virginia officials ask for company financial statements.
Ultimately, the deal fell apart and Virginia demanded the return of taxpayer money granted for the project.
After learning from a reporter about state officials’ reliance on the false website material, Secretary of Commerce and Trade Maurice Jones said he ordered reforms to Virginia’s vetting protocol as a result of the lapses in the evaluation of Lindenburg Industry LLC.
