What else would you expect from such a loyal friend and former-mayor-turned-developer?
Aside from the fact that Gordon and Johnson have referred to each other as best friends, the Johnson household has reaped financial benefits from the Mayor's Office.
Johnson's wife, Patty, pulled in more than $160,000 from 2008 to 2009 from the mayor's State of Downtown fund, which gets donations from private corporations and developers. In exchange for her hefty salary? She promotes downtown and coordinate events.
