32 contractors charged in ongoing investigation
City prosecutors have filed charges against 32 contractors as part of a continuing enforcement effort targeting abandoned and shoddy projects, officials said Wednesday.
Some of the contractors faced charges of grand theft after taking payment but not completing jobs, City Atty. Rocky Delgadillo said, adding that his office’s Corruption, Fraud and Enforcement Unit filed the misdemeanor complaints as part of an ongoing joint investigation with the Contractors State License Board. The targeted contractors were allegedly operating without proper state licenses.
