From today’s Star -
Did You Know Through the end of May, Rio Nuevo has spent nearly $118 million redeveloping Downtown. The city has only $25 million left from its $78 million bond sale last December, and $17 million of that is legally obligated through contracts, leaving only $8 million to spend.

Believe it or not, the city has finally put their accounting of Rio Nuevo revenues and expenses on their website, which I’ve linked below:

If you want more detail than this two-page report, you’ll probably need to contact Jessie Sanders at City Hall, who I believe has been named Rio Nuevo project coordinator (at least for now).
