This is just nuts and yeah I heard about this from another page I follow. I just feel terrible for Alpha Phi that this person has wielded so much power its almost as though the checks and balances were thrown out the window.

Still not quite in the same class as the National Executive director of Tau Epsilon Phi who declared that all of the chapters had not met their financial obligations, therefore no one could vote for National Officers, and therefore there were no National Officers who had the right to replace him.

Aren’t there tax breaks to being in Indiana? Are they just throwing those all out the window?

I also thought that that was part of the reason there had been such a gathering of HQs in Indianapolis...

There are- but Alpha Phi is in Evanston, which is Illinois.

Oh geez, so it is. Don’t mind my menopausal brain.

Haha, I typed Indiana in my response to you, even though I did actually search for results in Illinois.

Perhaps. I tried doing a search on fraternal tax breaks in Illinois a couple days ago when this was posted here on GC, and I couldn't find much. Maybe I need to dig more, but I will say that if you search "Colorado, tax, fraternal", you'll very quickly find the Fraternal Society Exemption information on the leg.colorado.gov website.
