Amanda Scallion’s written statement denies ethics complaint, urges professional conduct
Summary
Amanda Scallion submitted a written public comment saying an ethics complaint against her was dismissed as without merit and urging the council to expect professionalism and accountability from those who represent Corinth.
Amanda Scallion submitted a written public comment read into the record at the start of the meeting, saying a recent ethics complaint filed against her had been investigated and “has since been determined, to be without merit.” The statement noted Scallion’s volunteer service in Corinth, including as chairman of Keep Corinth Beautiful and a member of the Ethics Board, and asked the council to consider whether ongoing personal attacks and online harassment reflect the professionalism expected of anyone representing the city.
Scallion’s statement said her earlier public remarks about perceived waste of city resources were based on publicly available information and social‑media posts by the complainant, and requested the council consider standards of honesty, respect and accountability in public discourse. The comment was submitted for reading to the city secretary and was entered in the public‑comment portion of the meeting.
