by the company, in large part through its social club. The report alleges that the company and social club did not allow minorities as members. FOX43 News has obtained a copy of the report.
Between August of 2021 and September of 2022, the report says all information on the alleged discriminatory practices at the company was turned over to the State Attorney General's Office. Three accusations against the company and its social club were made in both July of 2023 and March of this year, according to the report, again alleging discriminatory practices based on race.
The report was unveiled publicly for the first time at the meeting, shortly before the matter was voted on. The attorney for the Friendship company said he was not made aware of the allegations made in the report prior to its public reading.
