FULTON COUNTY, Ga. -

The FOX 5 I-Team has more on its investigation of the Fulton County Development Authority. The authority has awarded more than $100,000 in outside contracts to a man who is in business with the authority board chairman.

FOX 5 previously reported what some call excessive spending by the authority of meals, flowers, and banquets.
