One of Sacramento's most powerful men is under investigation.
A local political group is calling out Sacramento City Manager Ray Kerridge about his involvement in home construction in a Natomas flood zone that was forbidden to be built in by FEMA.
Kerridge is the latest target in the controversy that has involved Dan Waters, son of City Councilman Robbie Waters.
The Democratic Party of Sacramento County says Kerridge should have known what was going on, and that he had the opportunity to audit that department but chose not to.
"I don't believe it's happened as long as Ray Kerridge has been city manager," said Devin Lavelle of the Democratic Party of Sacramento. "There are certainly a lot of questions there. It probably would behoove him to have some answers as he faces voters in June."
FEMA is looking into the situation, and a San Francisco law firm has been hired to conduct an outside investigation.
