DUNBARTON ETHICS COMMITTEE

MEETING

Thursday, February 19, 2004

Submitted prior to final acceptance

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

Brett called the meeting to order at 7:35 p.m.

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

New Business: Ken Alton, 1010 Blackbrook Road, former Recycling Committee Member, 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. Since this was not an Ethics issue, it was suggested that he might want to write a letter to the Selectmen and explain that he did not have the material in question and provide any other background information that might be helpful in locating them.

Correspondence: The committee has received two letters since our last meeting. Nick responded to their correspondence and invited them to address our committee at any of our monthly meetings, if they so desired.

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

April 21 has been set as the date for the training session for all newly elect and/or appointed members of committees.

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
