They’re being audited for remitting the meals tax. The RTP isn’t a restaurant. Their permits were for a rally - not to serve food or charge ticket fees to attend the rally.
The comments at the Dispatch about this are unreal. The main theme is RTP is organized and has money so they should pay but Occupy is not organized and shouldn’t have to — it’s almost surreal - even worse than the folks in Norfolk, and more like Wilmington, Delaware.
