The Monroe Doctrine
A proposal is being introduced at tonight’s City-County Council meeting which would censure former Council President Monroe Gray for ethics violations.
An ethics hearing found Gray failed to file proper disclosure forms regarding his business interests.
There are no penalties in the ordinance, but it does call for Gray’s actions to be publicly condemned.
Expect some controversy out of this one as there is a question as to whether the Council’s investigative committee of Gray ever had a quorum since it was made up of two members from each party. And there was a question as to whether Democrat Paul Bateman had officially resigned from the Committee after he was part of a federal investigation regarding charity fraud.
Stay tuned.
