D.C. Attorney General Peter Nickles has sued prominent District landlord Don Peebles, alleging he submitted for reimbursement $1.2 million in improper charges — including donations the businessman made to political campaigns for Councilmen Marion Barry, Michael A. Brown and Jack Evans.
According to an independent audit, the city overpaid Peebles $600,000 in reimbursements between 2007 and 2009. The improper charges were related to property the District leases from Peebles at 2100 Martin Luther King Blvd. SE.
