MINNEAPOLIS (WCCO) — Minnesota’s legislative auditor Jim Nobles says he’s opened what he called a priority investigation into the Minnesota Sports Facilities Authority’s control of two luxury suites at U.S. Bank Stadium.

State Senator Julie Rosen, who co-sponsored the bill that built U.S. Bank Stadium, said she’s “disgusted” by the lack of transparency the authority has insisted on for the suites at Minnesota Vikings games and other events such as concerts.

Rosen says she wants authority chair Michele Kelm-Helgen to explain why the authority has sole control of the two lower-level suites and why they won’t reveal the identity of the people who use them.

Each suite can hold up to 18 people per event.
