New Mexico seeks refund over Hispanic fresco funds
New Mexico Cultural Affairs seeks $241,494 in repayment from the Hispanic Cultural Center Foundation over impermissible expenses tied to the 812,500 fresco project in Albuquerque. The controversy centers on administrative costs and other items deemed noncompliant with capital outlay rules, while the foundation argues previous administrations approved allocations and contracts. An independent audit is underway to determine fault and future spending.
