Broker’s Probe Sparks County Scandal | San Jose News

Published 5 days, 22 hours ago
Description

A $56 million Sonoma County office building purchase hit a major snag after pay-to-play allegations surfaced, sparking a private investigation into union critic Ryan Williams. Broker Larry Wasem, who donated to a supervisor and co-owns a nearby business park, is now under scrutiny for potential conflicts of interest. Williams claims his personal info was improperly shared in the probe, alleging an effort to silence public debate. The investigator’s firm says it was a database error and is cooperating with state regulators. The county’s deal remains on hold as a state investigation continues — all while officials push forward to upgrade aging facilities, with the controversial property back on the closed-session agenda.
