California’s campaign finance watchdog will be investigating former Windsor Mayor Dominic Foppoli’s campaign spending.
The Fair Political Practices Commission wrote Foppoli this week saying its enforcement division “has commenced a commission-initiated investigation regarding your committee’s potential violations.” No conclusions have been reached but investigators informed the former Mayor that they may be contacting him to “discuss the matter.” It stems from an anonymous complaint filed in late April highlighting 10 instances of campaign spending and donations. They include a liquor bill for a 2019 Foppoli event, air travel, and payments to a former girlfriend and a campaign treasurer who works as an executive at his family’s Christopher Creek Winery.
