Nashville Law Director Wally Dietz told members of the Metro Arts Commission in a letter Wednesday that the commission needs greater financial oversight and an outside law firm has been hired to investigate multiple complaints made against the body. The letter, described by the Nashville Banner, includes an update from Metro Finance Director Kevin Crumbo, who says that completion of an internal audit ordered in December is still weeks away, but that surplus funds from the fiscal year 2023 budget “will not be made immediately available until the Arts Commission can demonstrate its operations are stable and that its financial affairs are in good order.”
