Plan tightens nonprofit rules

Plan tightens nonprofit rules: "TAMPA - The scandal involving Lowry Park Zoo's former chief has prompted Mayor Pam Iorio to tighten the reins on hundreds of local nonprofit organizations that receive taxpayer money.

A proposed ordinance being drafted by the city would require nonprofit organizations that get city funds to abide by a series of ethical standards, including strict limits on financial dealings between executive staff and governing boards of the nonprofit group and for-profit entities"
