Phoenix Council Members Used City Suite to Watch NBA Finals, Concerts
Four city council members attended Suns games or concerts using a city suite within the city owned Footprint Center that is supposed to be used for community and economic development purposes.
"The more the public comes to perceive that there is or appears to be some misuse of their public position … the more likely they are to lose their confidence and trust in not only these individuals, but more broadly the city government of Phoenix."
John Pelissero, senior scholar, government ethics, quoted by Axios.
