Last fall, the City of Seattle’s Finance and Administrative Services (FAS) department sent a letter to the Office of the Washington State Auditor asking them to investigate the $3 million no-bid contract that Seattle City Council awarded to the Black Brilliance Research Project. Now the city’s Finance and Administrative Services (FAS) department has sent a letter to the Office of the Washington State Auditor to broaden the investigation of the contract.

In December, it was revealed that the Seattle City Council used a loophole to circumvent the bidding process and appropriated 3 million dollars to non-profit organizations that were involved in the Capitol Hill Autonomous Zone (CHAZ). The same organizations involved with defunding the Seattle Police Department for 'community-led programs.'

Seattle City Council awarded the entire $3 million in a single contract to King County Equity Now (KCEN) through the office of Socialist Council Member Tammy Morales, even though KCEN was not a registered non-profit organization.
