DUNBARTON ETHICS COMMITTEE

Thursday, February 19, 2004

 

Subject to final approval at the next scheduled meeting

 

Attending:  Brett St. Clair, Nick Holmes, Scott Ives, Gayle Troy and Jackie Kennedy

 

The meeting was called to order by Brett at 7:35 p.m.

 

Motion to accept the minutes of the January 22 meeting was made by Brett, second by Scott.  Motion passed.

 

Ken Alton, 1010 Blackbrook Road, expressed his concern about a letter he had received from the Selectmen regarding personnel records that might not have been turned in to the Selectmen by the Recycling Committee when he was a member of that committee.  Since this was not an Ethics issue, it was suggested that he might want to write a letter to the Selectmen and explain where he thought those records might be.

 

March 25 has been set as orientation for our new board member.

 

April 24 has been set as the date for the training session for all newly elect and/or appointed members of committees.

 

Correspondence: The committee received two letters.  Nick responded to each individual for the committee.  Nick let them know that our next meeting would be held on 19 February if they deemed further action was needed.

 

Working Session:  A procedural flow chart is in the process of being developed so that the committee may have a guide as to how we proceed on issues that come before the committee.  This is a work in progress.

 

A brief discussion on how long the committee’s minutes, and any additional meeting minutes, should remain on the Town Web Page.  The consensus was that they should reflect both the previous and current year.

 

The committee expressed its appreciation to Gayle for her four years of service on the committee.  Her professionalism, knowledge and insights will be sorely missed.

 

The next Ethics Committee meeting is scheduled for March 25.

 

Motion to adjourn by Brett St. Clair, second by Gayle Troy.  Motion passed.

 

Respectfully submitted for the committee by:

 

Jacqueline A. Kennedy
