Charter committee advances concise amendment to create county ethics review board

At a meeting of the Clallam County Charter Review Commission Ethics Committee, members agreed to advance a short charter amendment that would establish an ethics review board to receive and review complaints about violations of the Clallam County code of ethics by elected county officials and to make the board’s findings public. The committee voted informally to forward the language to staff for placement as a “Step 2” item on the CRC agenda and to circulate a draft resolution for the larger commission to consider.
