Motion to accept the minutes of the February 19 meeting was made by Brett, second by Brigitte. Motion passed.

Welcome to Brigitte Cook as our newly elected committee member.

The Ethics Committee orientation will be held on Tuesday, April 13, at 7:30 p.m. for all newly elected and appointed officials. Brett will circulate a list of those individuals and the committee will call to invite and encourage them to attend.

Brett will circulate an outline for orientation as well.

Working Session: The procedural flow chart was worked on and Nick will incorporate all changes discussed into the new chart.

One of the items discussed in detail was correspondence once a complaint has been filed. Brett made a motion that all notices and correspondence dealing with a complaint that come before the committee and require a written response will be sent to all interested parties via Certified Mail. Nick seconded the motion. Motion passed. The Administrative Rules of the Ethics Committee will be amended to reflect this change.

Because orientation will be held on April 13 the regularly scheduled meeting for Thursday, April 22 has been cancelled.

Motion to adjourn by Scott, second Nick. Motion passed. Meeting adjourned at 8:40 p.m.

Respectfully submitted for the committee by:

Jacqueline A. Kennedy
